Necropolis of Love - Alyssa

Just out of mere curiosity: is the song any good? I've bought the EP on eBay but Alyssa is on the hard-to-come-by 7". I also have the Dance 12" with a crap song on the flipside.
Is there anything else by Necropolis of Love besides those 3 releases?
Cheers,

Yes, that song is great! It's their only truly minimal-synth song. Also, the version of "Talk" on the 7" is a lot rougher and different from their later EP version. I can send them both to you later today when I get home from work. Would it be possible for you to send the tracks from the Dance 12"? that one is impossible to find, even in the Bay Area.

Sure, but I'd have to rip the B-Side as I didn't find it worth to add to my mp3 collection. The A-Side could well be the version on the EP. I'd have to listen again to make sure. Will get in touch with you when I found out.
