Was this supposed to feature on the Who Dares Wins soundtrack, but got bumped for that band with half of Fairport Convention in?

I

this.

It's basically electro, but as done by Belgians.

This album isn't even considered anywhere near their best album. box

I'm digging the boingy, springy element to the rhythm.

It is over.

Not one moment of it was interesting. Nor did any moment of it even try to be interesting.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

Well, I liked i' a lo'.

Those crazy Belgians.

I couldn't tell if it was ahead of the time, Rev. Co, and all those Wax Trax types, or slightly behind the times, later Throbbing Gristle, v. early Soft Cell, and Cabarete Voltaire natch.

And yet of it's time and in retrospect a musical dead end, no one wants to sound like The Revolting Cocks these days.

Quite like it, more for the first and last tracks, and the Human League stuff less so. ★★★★
