There are more than one artist with the name Dave Allen: 1) Dave Allen (born 23 December 1955) was the bass guitarist for the post-punk band, Gang of Four.
In 1981, he left Gang of Four to found Shriekback. He later founded World Domination Recordings and two of its bands, The Elastic Purejoy and Low Pop Suicide (with Rick Boston). He appeared on several LPs and EPs with each of these bands, though his ambitious plan to release a work of 20 volumes produced only three releases, The Harvest (soundtrack) and the Elastic Purejoy's The Clutter of Pop and Talk Radio (album).
