London-based, The Antelopes were only active from 1980-1981 yet they recorded enough material for Floating Mill Records to issue Breaking News. The first single from the collection is “Hour Of Light.” Mixing elements of post-punk and disco, the band described the track’s evolution, “it started off as another Cure-inspired track, but Steve wanted to get some ‘Funkytown’ influences in there.” The result is a dark yet danceable track that ends with a scream.
