Punch The Clock

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

Clive Langer and Alan Winstanley produced the album, providing the radio-ready sheen common in the early eighties. The inclusion of the TKO Horns brought an upbeat energy, signaling a departure from previous, more aggressive work.

This project captures the band experimenting with sophisticated arrangements. It represents a deliberate shift in direction, resulting in a departure from the jagged punk edges found on earlier studio efforts.
