About this album
Night Of A Thousand Candles is a spirited debut that helped define The Men They Couldn't Hang’s folk-rock edge in the mid-1980s. Released in 1985, the album mixes rousing pub-rock energy with acoustic drive, punk attitude and vividly drawn storytelling, giving the band a distinctive place in the UK indie and folk-punk scene. Its best-known moments, including the anti-war standard The Green Fields Of France and the tougher, ballad-driven originals around it, show a group with a strong sense of history and melody. The result is an album that feels both defiant and rooted in tradition, and one of the band’s most enduring statements.
