2. Scene Ecology: Declaration pushed Welsh identity into the post-punk arena, carrying folk protest signals into a UK scene often centered on London and Manchester.
3. Studio Lore: Produced by Alan Shacklock, the album framed The Alarm like a street-corner rally, using acoustic attack, military imagery, and big-room urgency as design.
