Age of Chance: One Thousand Years of Trouble [Virgin, 1987]
At their strongest these Leeds lads have the postsituationist aggro down. Slogans like "Take It!" and "Don't Get Mad . . . Get Even!" are presented literally, yelled over loud funk beats that combined with their wall of noise makes them white rap the way Led Zep were white blues. Advocating insurrection ain't planning revolution, but it ain't surrender either.
