Comsat Angels - Independence Day

The Comsat Angels were one of those second-tier British bands who inhabited the space between post-punk and new wave in the early 1980s, never achieving the superstardom of the Bunnymen while still managing to release one or two singles that everybody around at the time remembers.

This was their best song and biggest hit. I saw Voice of the Beehive play a cover of it once, for whatever that's worth.
