The 1986 Listening Post - Flux of Pink Indians - Uncarved Block

Flux of Pink Indians - Uncarved Block




#232/1377
June 15 1986
Flux of Pink Indians
Uncarved Block
Genre: Punk/Post-Punk
2.75 out of 5




I keep coming back to Big Audio Dynamite every time I start to jot my thoughts about this record down. They aren’t the same, but they aren’t too dissimilar. Punk band morphs into highly percussive rhythm machine with their attitude intact but subdued and the anarchy replaced by occasional…saxophones?
It doesn’t inspire nearly as much as BAD or the first McLaren record but it isn’t bad enough to run from. 
The kind of thing that one might see a video for halfway through an episode of Night Flight. 
In the end, it’s piffle.
