Post-punk musicians moved away from punk's traditional elements and raw simplicity, adopting instead a broader, more experimental approach that included a variety of avant-garde sensibilities and non-rock influences. Inspired by punk's energy and DIY ethos, but determined to break with rock clichés, artists experimented with styles such as funk, electronic music, jazz and dance music; dub and disco production techniques; and ideas from art and politics, including critical theory, modernist art, film and literature. These communities have produced independent record labels, visual art, multimedia performances and fanzines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese three compilations are by no means 'Best Of' or collections of chart hits. They are compilations that endeavour (and we think they do  well) to take a wide-ranging look at the UK and American post-punk scene in the years from 1978 to 1984, but here almost everything stops in 1981, giving space to bands and artists that almost always didn't make it beyond the 45 rpm mark. A representation of the true 'Outside of Everything' of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSide A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 TAKE IT - Taking Sides Hornsey, North London, 1979\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 TAKE IT - How lt Is Hornsey, North London,1979\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 THE SODS - Negative Positive Worthing, 1979\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e4 THE SODS - No Pictures Of Us Worthing, 1979\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5 TRANCE - Time Devours Northampton, 1980\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e6 WALKING FLOORS - No Next Time London, 1981\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSide B\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 SCHIZOID - White House Lancashire, 1981\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 WALKING FLOORS – Removal London, 1981\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 X-DEFEKTORS - Why Free Myra Hyndley Manchester, 1980\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e4 ZEITGEIST – Sniper Cornwall, 1980\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5 ZEITGEIST - Yellow Fidgets Cornwall, 1980\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Samizdat","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50526755553611,"sku":"2179040","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/7427244912853_1f480b86_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1728047849","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/postcards-vol-3-diy-and-indie-post-punk-from-england-1979-1981","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
