"Resistance" is a song by the English post-punk band Clock DVA. It was the first single released in support of their third studio album, Advantage (1983).[2]
A music video was also released for "Resistance" in 1983.[3]
Martin Hebbert of the Black Country Evening Mail called "Resistance" a "dynamic track" with a "snappy dance floor beat", in an otherwise unenthusiastic review of Advantage.[4] M.C. of the Burton Mail described the track as "electronic dance music for the 1940s" that would "have Humphrey Bogart tripping the light fantastic".[5]
