Pere Ubu - Non-alignment Pact 1978

#alternative_music Album/Single/EP : The Modern Dance Pere Ubu is an experimental rock music group formed in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1975. Despite many long-term band members, singer David Thomas is the only constant. The group is named after Père Ubu (“father Ubu“), the protagonist of Ubu Roi (“Ubu, the King“), a play by French writer Alfred Jarry. While Pere Ubu have never been widely popular—usually categorized as “underground rock“—they have a devoted following, have been hugely influential on several generations of avant-garde musicians and are a critically acclaimed American musical group. To define their music, Pere Ubu coined the term Avant Garage to reflect interest in both avant-garde music (especially Musique concrète) and raw, direct garage rock.
