about this song
Performance is a song by the English post-punk project Tones on Tail, released in 1984 as a single during the band’s final year of activity. It's noted for its sparse arrangement, dub-inflected bassline, and restrained, incantatory vocal delivery. The track reflects the group’s minimalist aesthetic and studio experimentation during the early 1980s, situating it within the darker, rhythm-driven strand of the UK post-punk movement associated with members later active in Bauhaus and Love and Rockets.
