The two-piece band hailed from Manchester, home of some of the best post-punk bands in the world, so you can expect some fruitful gems here. Aggressive drum machines (most running a similar, but effective program), incisive guitar work, yet solid, danceable rhythms. A real treat!<\/p>\n

It seems the band earned quite the following during their tenure, which lasted for three LPs. The band grew poppier and less aggressive with each release, which culminated in a name change. Sexus, as the band would then be known, grew in popularity into the early 1990s with a more acid house sound, typical of England at the time. Sexus released two LPs before disbanding.<\/p>\n

You can fill in a few more details by visiting the band’s site<\/a>, which appears to be run by a member. You can also download the title track from the band’s second release, the Tough Guy Shell<\/i> 12”. Without any further ado, here’s the info for this killer release.<\/p>\n
