Rags to Tatters: The Best of Pel Mel is a compilation that acts as an essential historical bridge across the 1980s Australian underground music scene. Released by the Blue Jube label in September 2016, this 17-track anthology gathers the finest works of the short-lived Sydney/Newcastle post-punk band, drawing from their two studio albums alongside early singles. Post-Punk Paranoia Meets Pop-Electro, Pel Mel excelled at blending dark, anxious post-punk themes with highly danceable rhythms. The compilation charts their evolution from an edgy inner-city guitar act into a sophisticated pop-electro outfit.
