A great band with an unfortunate name. Malcolm McLaren had pulled the name from a William Burroughs novel and had considered using it for Bow Wow Wow (who used the phrase in the lyrics of "Mile High Club) but chose Bow Wow Wow. Then Boy George wanted to use the name for what became Culture Club, but the band said no, and ended up making an Everest of cash. Finally, it was claimed Andi Sex Gang, lead singer of a band that was originally called Panic Button. And here we are.

Google cautioned me when I looked up the video. So, I'm on a list or something. Great.

Great song to pogo to

This amazing song (THE BEST) is from the album Bizarro.

From Eight Crepuscule Tracks. No one ever tried to copy them. That chugging fiddle-like tone in the beginning sounds like noted Fluxus weirdo Henry Flynt. Wonder if it's a sample?

"Brancasonic!" -- David Bowie, from the song Tin Machine

Up here in the North there are no wage packet jobs for us

Thank Christ

early German dark wave — sounds a bit like early Cure.

Love the weird cabaret horns combined with the crunchy guitar.

Mid-eighties goth post-punk from Leeds (they might be still around in some form?)

I love Adam Ant, (and Adam and the Ants). I like the combination of undeniable groove, occasional melodic eccentricity, and a sense of humor.
