    About this album

    Strength is The Alarm’s breakthrough album, a driving 1985 statement that sharpened the Welsh band’s post-punk energy into widescreen anthems. Built on Mike Peters’ passionate vocals, ringing guitars and openly political edge, it helped define the group’s mix of heart, rebellion and communal uplift. Songs such as the title track, Knife Edge and Spirit of ’76 show a band balancing urgency with melody, while the record’s sense of conviction gave it lasting appeal beyond the alternative rock scene. Widely regarded as one of the band’s key releases, Strength remains a potent example of mid-80s guitar rock with purpose.
