Rich Kids - Ghosts Of Princes In Towers LP

Ghosts of Princes in Towers is the sole studio album from British new wave band Rich Kids, featuring members of the late-1970s punk and post-punk scene, including former Sex Pistols bassist Glen Matlock.

The album blends punk energy with polished new wave songwriting, combining sharp guitar lines, melodic bass work and emotionally charged vocals. It captures a transitional moment between raw punk aggression and the more refined, melodic direction of early 1980s alternative music.

Across the record, themes of youth, disillusionment, romance and urban life are explored with both urgency and sophistication. The production balances punchy rhythm sections with brighter, more melodic arrangements, giving the album a distinctive place in the post-punk era.
