If Ron Mael had joined The Fall and rewritten ABBA's greatest hits it still wouldn't have the twisted pop sensibility of this uniquely disturbing and brilliant glam-pop combo. On a night out with these deranged men and you may well find yourself locked up

...The Story so far...........
When Louis Gordon and Allan Owens got together over two pints of Fuggles Imperial and a sausage roll,
there were rumours in the gallery, but Allan. (still smarting from his unsuccessful Viking-esque
assault on the Fort Knox that is Sony records), was a bitter man.
At Christmas 1997, his band Geek were given four silver bullets disguised as champagne bottles.
The rest as they say is mystery. Now he just drinks the Nelson Mandela.
Louis, (the Roy Keene of techno, with mis-timed tackles and long term injuries),
had just completed another seminal work with John Foxx, (whom he'd been conspiring with for some time).
After John's deportation to Leeds, Louis was cast adrift on the canals of Ancoats.
"Ahoy there!", shouted Jolly Roger, (an old shipmate of questionable character).
Jolly Roger, (nee Roger Lyons to his contemporary's), was still suffering the effects of scurvy
following his voyage of discovery on the good ship Lionrock, via an off-peak excursion
as Pop-Eye on the steamer, Olive.
"What you up to?" shouted Rog,
'NOTHING!', answered Lou.
"sounds great!", retorted Rog. Let's cruise up to Allans."
The rods were out, the lads were on a mission.
They needed help so they press-ganged a few old shipmates.
On drums, Kevin Bigwood, still on remand, still in demand.
He's been in O M D, E L O, E L P and a long stretch in H M P .
On percussion, Hector Rodriguez Fernando Fila Schulie.
Poached from the in- audible ambient legends, 'Cabin Fever'.
Cheap brass, Ken Stanton. Ex glass blower, Kenneth T Stanton
formed the Halifax horns in 1945 and is still blowing up a storm.
Bass and electric guitars, Dickie Saint Virus and Maurice Tricklewhite.
Kindly on loan from there necro-metal band, Twisted Womb.
There was no picture on the box,
but the jigsaw was complete.
See you in the morning,
Take me home!
