Kings Of The Wild Frontier

Adam And The Ants

The band abandoned their earlier post-punk sound in favor of a relentless, stomping energy driven by dual-drumming. This shift captured the visual and musical excess that characterized the emergence of the New Romantic scene.

Spaghetti western influences inform the theatrical tone of these songs. By colliding underground roots with a flamboyant, high-concept approach, the group created a distinct identity that stood out during the early eighties pop landscape.
