Ghost Of New Model Army

New Model Army is one of those bands that when I listen to them, that all that I want to listen to. I'll not listen to them for months, and then from out of nowhere a song will jump into my head and then that's the rest of my day sorted... time for a NMA marathon.
New Model Army are a band out of England, and while I very much consider them to be a punk band, they don't really fit the 80's English punk mould... or at least what I tended to gravitate to for punk in the 80's... but the aggression and emotion on their early records is so addictive to me. I've been slow to build a NMA collection, and I can't believe that at this point I didn't own The Ghost Of Cain already.
Like Trouble, New Model Army was an important common thread that ran between Tim, Jeff and me... so it was a nice gesture when Jeff pulled this album out of Tim's collection and handed it to me free of charge.
