''Music For A New Society'' is an album by former Velvet Underground member John Cale . It was released in August 1982 on Island Records . It went in stark constrast with his previous few albums, which were packed with as much avant-garde noise as could be afforded, as it contained very minimalist instrumentation and a great deal of sonic space. All Music Guide has called it "Spare, understated, and perhaps a masterpiece."
