  • Summary

  • Join us and we listen to prog and punk as a window onto theories of the postmodern, during the decade of decay and decline, the 1970s. This episode features theorists such as Baudrilliard and Lyotard, and concepts of the hyperreal and simulacrum and music from Yes, Caravan, the Clash and the Sex Pistols. These wildly different music responses, one escapist and virtuosic and the other confrontational and self-consciously primitive, share the same home environment: an era of spectacle and decline, deindustrialization and urban decay, the 1970s.
