Released 1979 Label Do It Chart positions UK No.16 US – In some ways, Adam And The Ants’ Dirk Wears White Soxis a classic punk debut album. From other viewpoints – including Adam Ant’s – it’s not really punk or even a debut album at all. It was released on indie label Do It, founded by Pop Muzikhitmaker Robin Scott (aka M) and future Yello manager ...
Released 1980 Label CBS Chart positions UK No.1 US No.44 As if the critical panning of Dirk Wears White Soxwasn’t enough to contend with, Malcolm McLaren stealing the Adam And The Ants lineup to form Annabella Lwin’s backing band in Bow Wow Wow really should have finished Adam as a cult hero. It did. Instead, Adam decided to become the biggest pop ...
Released 1981 Label CBS Chart positions UK No.2 US No.94 Having conquered the nation against all rational laws of pop, Adam Ant wasn’t about to let stardom fall from his grasp. The trouble was, CBS’ brutal contract meant an album absolutely had to be released every year. His head giddy at the reality of stardom, it was a minor miracle that Adam was...
Released 1982 Label CBS Chart positions UK No.5 US No.16 There’s no great drama behind Adam And The Ants’ split. Prince Charmingwas rushed, yet there was no let up in needing another album a year later. There was no time for a break, so they had to end when Chris Hughes was offered to produce Tears For Fears and Gary Tibbs wanted to return to sessi...
Released 1983 Label CBS Chart positions UK No.20 US No.65 The moment where CBS’ hamster wheel fell off its moorings, Stripis the weakest Adam Ant album. Whereas early Adam And The Ants explored alternative BDSM sexuality and recent albums had deployed a seaside postcard humour, Adam’s love of Benny Hill went into overdrive on Strip. Songs like Libe...
Released 1985 Label CBS Chart positions UK No.42 US No.131 There’s a large sense of injustice surrounding Vive Le Rockfor most Adam Ant fans. Striphad stalled at No.20 in the UK and No.65 in the US. Finally given a relatively long break, Adam released Vive Le Rockin September 1985, 22 months after Strip. Having tried a dance-pop sound there, Vive L...
Released 1990 Label MCA Chart positions UK No.19 US No.57 Although it was five years before Adam Ant released another studio album after Vive Le Rock, half of Manners & Physique was written immediately after its predecessor, which explains the familiarly punky, pugilistic air of Anger Inc and USSA. The delay was due to Adam becoming an actor. Wanti...
Released 1995 Label EMI Chart positions UK No.24 US No.143 In which Adam Ant decides to grow up for a bit… Although Wonderfularrived five years afterManners & Physique, the unreleased Persuasionwas influential in between on the genesis of Adam’s eighth official album. Former Ruts drummer Dave Ruffy, a friend of Marco Pirroni from touring together i...
Released 2013 Label Blueback Hassar Chart positions UK No.25 US – It was 18 years after Wonderfulbefore a new Adam Ant album in 2013. Adam took five years out to raise daughter Lily, living in the Tennessee mountains. On returning to England, his mental health suffered. Adam felt flatlined by drugs prescribed for bipolar disorder, before a sympathe...
Released n/a Label MCA Chart positions UK – US – A sad tale of record company stupidity, Persuasionremains unreleased 30 years after it was recorded as the follow-up to Manners & Physique. Going through financial difficulties, MCA refused to release Persuasionin 1992 because Manners & Physiquehadn’t gone gold. OK. So why has MCA stubbornly refused ...
