Music Album Packshop

after hugely influential, independent singles like ‘hide u’, ‘catch’ & ‘(slip & slide) suicide’, kosheen achieved massive club, critical & chart success. their much loved lp ‘resist’ presents yet more dimensions of kosheen, with sparkling electronic breakbeat, deep chilled drum ‘n’ bass torch songs and achingly beautiful downbeat melancholia allowing sian’s emotive voice full range. this is a killer debut. remastered for 2021
