Post-punk in print: nine posters from the new wave era

From the rebellious sounds of Chelsea’s self-titled debut album to the avant-garde innovations of Public Image Ltd.’s "Metal Box," this collection captures pivotal moments in music history. The Clash's daring first American tour, The Raincoats’s eclectic debut, and The Mo-Dettes’s feminist punk ethos are all here. This collection also features rare promotional materials from Echo & the Bunnymen’s critically acclaimed Ocean Rain, Liquid Liquid’s influential live performances, and the innovative collaboration of Andy Summers and Robert Fripp on Bewitched. Additionally, Chris Isaak’s Silvertone, which gained fame through David Lynch’s film Blue Velvet, adds a touch of cinematic history to the mix. These posters are not just advertisements but artifacts offering a tangible connection to the post-punk movement's dynamic continuing legacy.  1. Chelsea. Chelsea.
