Invisible Pedestrian - s/t (1988, Footlong)
From my understanding Invisible Pedestrian had roots in Czechoslovakia, automatically making this quartet outliers. As for their music they couldn't have sounded more Anglo, dishing out vaguely socially conscious "modern rock," akin to what contemporaries The Call, The Alarm and Rhythm Corps specialized in around the same era. Sure, you could certainly fare better, but considerably worse too. A fairly consistent listen throughout, Invisible Pedestrian exudes an especially poignant highlight in the sprite, U2-endebted "Ordinary Taxpayer," easily my go-to number here. Btw, the album was released in Germany under the title Lessons of History, with a far more flattering album jacket.

First band I hear from Czechoslovakia btw. Can't imagine how many bands from eastern countries are waiting to surface :-D
