Talk Talk's 1988 release 'Spirit Of Eden' saw the band wholly embrace the abstract experimental urges hinted at on 'It's Getting Late In The Evening', 'Chameleon Day' and 'April 5th'.

 

Simultaneously haunting and hard hitting, graceful and gritty, 'Spirit Of Eden' is very much a unified album statement. An influence on the Post Rock movement to come, as well as on the likes of No-Man, Bark Psychosis and Slint.
