A declarative debut bursting with Welsh rock passion
The Alarm showcased a stunning blend of punk impulse and rock grandeur.
Featuring Mike Peters' passionate vocals and songs with strong political and social messages, the band's sound, which combines the grandeur of U2 with the urgency of The Clash, brought a breath of fresh air to the 1980s rock scene. It's a masterful debut album, with a passionate yet intelligent attitude.
