Here’s the lone 7” from Negatives In Colour, a new wave band from the UK. The single is a donation from the great bx59cppw<\/a>, and comes complete with the blessing of Peter Fenwick, the band’s drummer.<\/p>\n

Unlike many of the bands featured here at Systems of Romance, there’s actually quite a bit of information to be found about the band, thanks to a new website<\/a> and reverbnation page, which features several unreleased tracks. To briefly paraphrase, this five piece outfit formed in 1982, enjoying some nice exposure thanks to a BBC Oxford Roadshow appearance alongside Duran Duran, at the peak of their powers in 1983. This particular single earned a bit of success on The Tube, a program on Channel 4. The band split after a brief lineup change, but I’m told that Peter and Roland Rands are still playing together in a covers band.<\/p>\n

One other track was officially released on the One Giant Leap<\/i> compilation in 1983, which fetches some pretty crazy prices when it appears. You can find that one on the first edition of the Crispy Nuggets<\/a> various artists comps.. Peter also tells me that the BBC Oxford session tracks have been made available for download here<\/a>, so be sure to snag those as well. I’m particularly fond of “Shadow Walk.”<\/p>\n

Here’s the info for the 7”:<\/p>\n

In closing, there may be a one-off reunion appearance of the band in the works for the fall, so if you live in the UK, keep your eyes peeled!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
