Content (The Ultimate Content Can)

"We're amazed at how little, in general, musicians write about what it's like to be alive today while so many songwriters choose to write about love or getting laid or getting down on the dance floor. Great subjects, but there's so much more," says Andy Gill of Gang of Four. There's so much more in the diaspora of music and culture in fact, that for the release of Content, Gang of Four's first album of new material in fifteen years, the band has personally designed The Ultimate Content Can. This limited edition box set contains: a CD copy of Content including the track "Second Life," exclusive to this package; a "Smells Book" - a scratch n' sniff book reflecting key areas of human history; a "History Book" - an art piece on ceramic tiles depicting the last forty years of world history; a "Blood Book" - vials of the band's blood (Obvious: "WTF?!" - Ed.); an "Emotions Book" - rotoscoped photographs of the band's emotions; a "Words Book" - the lyrics!
