	Gang of Four - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Gang of Four (Simplified Chinese: 四人帮, Traditional Chinese: 四人幫; pinyin: Sì rén bāng) was a group of Communist Party of China leaders in the People's Republic of China who were arrested and removed from their positions in 1976, following the death of Mao Zedong, and were blamed for the events of the Cultural Revolution.
		In 1981, the four deposed leaders were subjected to a show trial and convicted of anti-party activities.
		All members of the "Gang of four" have since died; Jiang Qing died soon after her release, though some allege she committed suicide, Wang Hongwen died in 1992, Zhang Chunqiao died in April 2005 and Yao Wenyuan died in December 2005.

	Gang of Four (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gang of Four's later albums (Songs of the Free and Hard) found them softening some of their more jarring qualities, and drifting towards dance-funk and disco.
		Gang of Four went on to influence a number of successful funk-tinged alternative rock acts throughout the 80s and 90s, (even, arguably, many rap-rock and nu metal groups "not in touch with their ancestry enough to realize it" [2]), although few of their followers were as arty or political.
		Gang of Four can also be credited as one of the early influences on techno or electronic music; they released dance remixes of several later singles.

	Gang of Four - Biography - AOL Music
		Fueled by the fury of punk rock and radical political theory, Gang of Four successfully welded the two in an inspired display of polemics and music that addressed the vagaries of life in the modern world (including love and romance) as matters of political inquiry.
		What made Gang of Four's polemical clang'n'roll so compelling was that it worked as harsh, bracing, and ultimately liberating rock & roll.
		But legends die hard, and Gang of Four experienced a mini-renaissance in the early '90s with the release of two excellent collections (A Brief History of the Twentieth Century and The Peel Sessions Album).

	RPGnet: Review of Gang of Four
		Gang of Four isn't a strategy game of the type that's usually reviewed at RPGnet; rather it's a commercial production of a classic card game (though one not widely available in the Occidental world), produced in a distinctively Oriental style.
		Gang of Four is essentially a card game packaged as a board game, a type of packaging which honestly bugs me a little bit because it tends to create large, mostly empty boxes, and because it increases price point.
		Gang of Four is a member of a family of Value Climbing card games, where play continues along an ascending ladder of card values until the top is reached; they tend to combine features of Set Making and Card Matching games, to look at them from a purely Western perspective.

		Gang Of Four's Dave Allen was in the NME this week laying out the band's grand plan.
		"Gang Of Four doesn't believe in the individual, and we believe that whatever you do is 'political' with a small 'p'.
		I don't think Gang Of For is in opposition to rock music, because the opposition to rock music could be said to be avant-garde, which would then be elitist, which is definitely what we do not want, to be elite.

		Gang Of Four, an unsigned punk band from Leeds (named after the renegade communist faction led by Mao's widow, who staged a 10-day leadership coup in China two years earlier), have managed to get a booking at what is still the most insalubrious nightspot in the so-called "Great Border City".
		That Gang Of Four aren't necessarily the first point of reference when exposing the second-hand ideas of today's plagiarists is perhaps down to their subsequent career, one which ultimately failed to match the achievement of their debut.
		As a guitarist he is also the narrator, to the degree that the Gang of Four, their words not much less cut up than their sound, used one.

		For bands such as Gang of Four, Mission of Burma and Wire, sitting back and complaining about nicked riffs and stolen concepts isn't nearly as satisfying as returning to the stage and showing the now-receptive audiences how it's done.
		(Allen went on to form the art-pop group Shriekback.) To Gang of Four fans steeped in the style of the first two records, watching singer Jon King mime the no-bones-about-it disco of “I Love a Man in Uniform” on TV in the early '80s was a bit much.
		Gang of Four's two-night stand at The Fillmore in San Francisco, for example, drew sold-out crowds of older fans and younger scenesters curious about a group that serves as the genetic blueprint for so many indie- and dance-rock bands.

	Writing.Com: Inside The Gang of Four
		If this was the extent of the Gang of Four’s kingdom, it appeared I had not infiltrated the meetings of a sinister cult out to manipulate free speech to its own dastardly ends, but rather had stumbled upon a committee meeting of an eccentric provincial conservation society.
		Four of the Trolls detached themselves from the group and jumped onto the stage, where they pinned the weakling virgin down and began rubbing a glutinous balm all over their hapless victim.
		When Vader rashly referred to a “Gang of Four” ranged against him, (naming in the process Monkey_Magic, Roxanne, THI, and Stavros as the members, and ensuring their position on the silver thrones), the organisation had a name, and a public persona which protected the leader from closer study.

		The Gang of Four at this time were a heady, dancing and shattering mix; trenchant political lyrics, funk or reggae basslines coupled with propulsive drum patterns and dissonant, shearing, tearing guitar.
		The later Gang of Four albums had their moments, but this one is all highlights from beginning to end.
		I saw the Gang play live years after their prime, with a replacement drummer and bassist but Andy Gill and Jon King were still as intense as ever.

		Understanding better than anyone the contradictions of their position, Gang Of Four had no choice but to plow through them: analyzing the lies of entertainment at the same time that they worked within the entertainment industry; analyzing the commodification of their lives at the same time that they commodified themselves.
		Gang Of Four left behind a body of work that asks a sequence of cogent, critical questions, which have rarely been addressed, let alone answered, in pop music before or since.
		Their iconoclastic approach derived from their attempt to rebuild pop music from first principles: outside fashion, of the moment, and as far from being frozen in the amber of pop styles as they could ever be.

	DISCORDER Gang of Four Jancember/Decembuary 2005
		Though many cringe at the thought of their favourite reunited bands making music after years apart (the Pixies, anyone?), Allen feels that Gang of Four is still capable of making music that explores new frontiers.
		The thing that sets Gang of Four apart from the plethora of late–‘70s punks was a personal touch that no other band approached.
		Whether or not this means Gang of Four will be as controversial today as they were during their first incarnation is irrelevant; Allen, an outspoken enemy of nostalgia, isn’t expecting to recapture anything except the power of the band’s live show.

		The same year American college students and FM radio stations found hipness in the Clash's "Train in Vain," a quartet of students from England's Leeds University calling themselves Gang of Four released their debut album.
		This is a ground breaking record - countless bands since have completely ripped off the Gang Of Four's sound - which, by the way, was entirely innovative at the date of its release.
