Sign Language - Belief And Other Propaganda 12"


Cool indie/postpunk from this Blackpool band Sign Language. This 12" was their only release and an early one on Fire Records. There's another song 'The Killing' that appears on the 2nd 'Blackpool Rox' comp. 7" issued on Vinyl Drip Records. I'll post that one in the future.
Sign Language formed in 1981 as a punkband but moved more to a new wave/postpunk sound over the years.
The band has reformed and occasionally do some low-key gigs.

Hi Laurence here from Sign Language

I'll try and dig out the tape if I can find it, and upload some of the tracks if anyone's interested.

You can find some recent live footage on Marks page here.
