The two tracks hail from 1981, and sound a bit Siouxsie-ish, a rather popular sound at the time.<\/p>\n<p>After releasing this single, the band switched vocalists to Steve Musham, who would go on to form jangle-pop band The Corn Dollies in the mid 80s. Musham would sing on the 1981 follow up\u00a0<em>A Full Rotation<\/em> and 1982&#8217;s\u00a0<em>A Will to Win<\/em>. Sarah Osborne, vocalist for this single,\u00a0also sang for Marine, KLINGONS and lastly and most prominently for new wave band Allez Allez. Osborne married the Heaven 17&#8217;s Glenn Gregory, the pair having met during bandmate Martyn Ware&#8217;s production work for Allez Allez&#8217;s second album\u00a0<em>Promises<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise, both tracks on this single are essential listening for that cold, early post-punk sound.
