The menacing track that matched Richard Fidler's melancholy

from Don't Look Back Podcast · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

Richard Fidler takes us back to the much darker and despairing times of his youth in Canberra. The recession 80s and looming nuclear crisis threatened to wipe out civilised society. In this climate some menacing and melancholic music captured the mood of the time and the imagination of a young Richard Fidler. Join him as he shares the magnificence and bleak tones of Killing Joke's 'Requiem' which gave him a sense of dancing to the impending apocalypse and ultimately, an odd sense of inspiration.
