New Model Army, a band synonymous with rebellious energy and social commentary, has left an indelible mark on the punk rock scene with their sophomore album, No Rest for the Wicked. It is bursting with raw passion and commitment to social justice.
A key element on the cover is a quote from the Magna Carta: "We will not sell, deny or delay justice or justice to anyone".
The line-up of the band at that time consisted of Justin Sullivan (vocals, guitar), Stuart Morrow (bass) and Robert Heaton (drums). The album was produced by Mark Freegard, who is known for his work with acclaimed artists such as the Manic Street Preachers and Kirsty MacColl. The album immediately made waves in the punk rock community, reaching number 22 on the UK album charts.
