* 2022 Re-press on limited edition Curacao colour vinyl * Remastered edition of the Cabs’ 1985 classic, newly cut in ’22 and coiled with template-setting sampler and machine funk that would spawn a wave of imitators. “Known for being the harder, more experimental album of their “Pop” period, ‘The Covenant, The Sword and The Arm of The Lord’ was originally released in 1985 and includes the classic ‘I Want You’. The album embodys Cabarets Voltaire’s industrial electro-funk sound and their punk ethos, lending its title to American political extremism. Cabaret Voltaire were very much ahead of their time, harmonising dance music, techno, dub, house and experimental electronics, making them, without a doubt, one of the most influential acts in electronic music."
