Review by Vaughan-John Jones

The Danse Society's album Wake Up is a journey through the darker side of post-punk. Released in 1984, the album features a mix of haunting melodies and driving rhythms that create a sense of urgency and intensity.

The album's opening track, "Wake Up," sets the tone with its pulsing bass line and urgent vocals. From there, the band takes the listener on a journey through a world of dark, brooding songs that explore themes of alienation, despair, and loss.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Heaven Is Waiting," which features a haunting melody and a driving beat that builds to a powerful climax. The song's lyrics, which explore the idea of finding salvation in the afterlife, are both poignant and unsettling.

Another highlight of the album is "Godsend," which features a driving rhythm and a soaring chorus that showcases the band's ability to create powerful, anthemic songs. The song's lyrics, which explore the idea of finding hope in the midst of despair, are both uplifting and inspiring.
