The legendary and super influential post-punk band that is Gang of Four not only influenced a raft bands and musicians in the past two decades from Red Hot Chilli Peppers to The Futureheads, but also recorded one of the greatest albums of all time, Entertainment. Now they have returned with new song ‘You Don’t Have To Be Mad’ via twitter and it looks as if they are sticking with the original formula of stripped-to-the-wire, droning, funk-fueled permutation of punk rock and not experimenting with anything too new.
Gang of Four will release new album Content via Pledge Music later this summer

Gang of Four – legends. Great to hear that they are back baby back.
and Damaged Goods sounds as good today as it did back then.
