NOW That’s What I Call An Era – THE SOUND OF THE SUBURBS



A 6-CD journey through the rebellious spirit and raw energy that defined the UK’s suburban youth culture in the late '70s and early '80s. From punk and post-punk to new wave and synth-pop, this collection captures the soundtrack of restless bedrooms, backstreet gigs, and DIY revolutions.
