Corrected Slogans is a studio album collaboration between the experimental rock band Red Krayola and the conceptual art group Art & Language. [3] [4] It was released in 1976 by the publisher Music-Language. [5] The album was adopted by Drag City and was re-issued on CD in 1997. [6]

Critical reception

Magnet called Correct Slogans "a mostly acoustic album of strange, politically charged pieces that sometimes border on opera." [7] The Dallas Observer wrote that the album matches "skeletal backing by Thompson and 16-year-old drummer Jesse Chamberlain ... with Art & Language's dry, unsingerly voices and their intentionally antilyrical lumps of Marxist art theory." [8]
