D & V - The Nearest Door (2024 Reissue) (LP)

D&V were a duo formed in Sheffield by Andy Leach on drums and Jef Antcliffe on vocals. The group released their first EP The Nearest Door on Crass Records. With Penny Rimbaud as producer, their musical simplicity was combined with uncompromising avant-gardism to achieve new heights. The group would go on to release a second album in 1984 entitled Inspiration Gave Them Motivation to Move on Out of Their Isolation with a more refined sound and additional vocals by CRASS' Eve Libertine and Joy de Vivre.
