Virgins And Philistines

The Colourfield

Following his time with Fun Boy Three, Hall initiated this project to explore different musical territory. The resulting work represents a transition from his previous role as a ska performer into an introspective songwriter.

Bright, jangling guitars and lush arrangements permeate the album, echoing the sixties pop revival popular during the decade. Released on Chrysalis, the record maintains a clean and optimistic tone that stands apart from the synth-heavy music of the period.
