Cover version of The Anvil (Night Club School) by Visage, c.1982.
Co-Vocals: Amy Ketchum #amyketchum
"The Anvil" was named after a gay New York nightclub, and this song sets out to capture the atmosphere of gay culture at that time. Musically, the new wave goth pop of the original had a strong undercurrent of proto-industrialism, which has been fully realized for this cover version.
Contains a sample of “Visage” by Luciano Berio and Cathy Berberian, c.2012.
