Anomie & Bonhomie

11 years after the release of previous album ‘Provision’, Scritti Politti erupted back into life with 1999’s ‘Anomie & Bonhomie’. Recalibrated, re-evaluated, re-imagined and, eventually, rewarded, ‘Anomie & Bonhomie’ is the heady results of this artistic rebirth. Illuminated by the band’s stylish pure pop spotlight, collaborations with Mos Def, Lee Majors and Wendy Melvoin give the record a neon-lit, nocturnal shimmer. Hip-hop flourishes sit side-by-side with heart-hitting balladry, as truly touching melodies match moments of uncompromising musical grit with their emotional impact.
