The Opposition's 1983 Concert History

THE OPPOSITION are English, from the southern suburbs of London. Mark Long, Marcus Bell and Ralph Hall seek through the colorless colors (black and white) the purity of the rates/rhythms which obsess you like the tick-tock of an alarm clock at the time of long sleepless nights! They came out with their first album of world exclusiveness at DISC' AZ on September 23, 1981. The originality of OPPOSITION lies in the marvelous mixture between the search for beautiful atmosphere and strong musical energy.
