"Seventeen years after its original CD release, the State Of Art collection is back in print, this time on vinyl. It features all the demos recorded by the first line-up of the band between 1981 and 1982. Funky flashes with pop touches, somewhere between A Certain Ratio , Talking Heads , early ABC and Spandau Ballet , all self-produced with limited resources yet filled with the band's unmistakable energy."
