Fad Gadget - ”Under the Flag”


Listen Later

The year is 1982 and Frank Tovey (aka Fad Gadget) releases the album "Under the Flag", a thematic record tackling the stress of raising a child in a world of increasing threats of fascism.  We discuss the history of Fad Gadget and Frank Tovey and give this record the Track-by-Track treatment.  It's an important record to electronic, industrial, and synth pop genres, and a milestone for co-host Eric.  Will the others like it?  Hate it?  Dance?  Cover themselves in shaving cream and feathers.....and more importantly, dear listener, WILL YOU?  Listen and find out.
