The Story
Clock DVA is an English group from Sheffield known for their eclectic mix of punk rock, new wave, industrial music, and post-punk. Active since 1978, the band was formed by Adi Newton and Steven "Judd" Turner, drawing inspiration from the experimental sounds of their era. Their name nods to the Russian-influenced Nadsat language found in Anthony Burgess's "A Clockwork Orange," with "DVA" meaning "two" in Russian. Clock DVA's music often delves into dark, mechanical themes, best exemplified by tracks like "The Hacker." Their pioneering approach has left a distinct mark on the landscape of alternative music, influencing a wide range of genres and artists that followed.
