Delta 5 were a first wave Post Punk band, hailing from the fertile Leeds scene. For brief period they challenged Gang of Four as England’s finest political Post Punk outfit. However, where Go4 promulgated a populist/socialist and often anti-military ideology, Delta 5 focused largely on feminist issues. Until recently their work had been out of print and extremely difficult to find. This changed when Kill Rock Stars released a compilation of their singles and sessions recorded between 1979-1981 in 2006.

Terrific band or what? I dunno why I didn't get any Delta 5 until about a week ago. I love Gang of Four after all, another fantastic band and pretty similar.
