From Manchester, England. Led by Mark Burgess (vocals/bass) with Reg Smithies (guitar), Dave Fielding (guitar) and John Lever (drums). A very prolific band, to the point that they only made three studio albums yet an enormous amount of posthumous material continues to be released! Burgess and Lever later formed The Sun And The Moon for one album after the band split in 1988. In an odd instance, the band reformed and released a new album, its first in 15 years, in 2001. This band was one of the first to mine the jangle and echo guitar sound that became wildly popular in Britain with bands like Echo & The Bunnymen and The Catherine Wheel. 1981-86/2001-present.
