Secondhand Daylight. Magazine were formed by Howard Devoto after he left The Buzzcocks. Not played this in decades.

My One and Only Thrill

Saying punky this morning (or is it post punk? I can't keep up). Just ahead of me getting my ear micro suctioned, so I may as well be playing the noisy stuff. So maybe I can call it deaf as a post punk :)

His 'Nine Horses' stuff is definitely worth a listen.Quote:

Cheers Loz, but I've just ordered 'Tin Drum', after that I'll follow your recommendations - Mrs. P gets an alert on her phone every time I make a purchase, so I'm trying to space them out ;)Quote:

I saw them touring this album about 1989, they made a big impression. Though the drugs might have helped with that...

The album has a sort of ambient/tribal vibe; I quite like it but, I cant speak for you so, give it a listen.
David Sylvians solo albums are worth a listen, especially "Brilliant Trees" which I think is superb!!!! I saw him live on that album tour at B/ham Alexandra Theatre - great !!!!!!
Happy listening :thumbsup:
