The Opposition were a long running post-punk band from London, England. Their early recordings mixed new wave sounds with reggae rhythms. Later as a ‘power trio’ of Mark Long, Marcus Bell & Ralph Hall they adopted a more edgy, moody, new wave sound that featured lots of atmospheric guitar, echo & deep funky basslines.

“This Year” is the debut single by new wave punk rock band The Opposition. Released on Ariola Hansa Records in 1980.
