Cabaret Voltaire were very much ahead of their time, harmonising dance music, techno, dub, house and experimental electronics, making them, without a doubt, one of the most influential acts in electronic music. Known for being the harder, more experimental album of their 'Pop' period, 'The Covenant, the Sword and the Arm of the Lord' was originally released in 1985 and includes the classic 'I Want You'. The album embodys Cabarets Voltaire's industrial electro-funk sound and their punk ethos, lending its title to American political extremism.
