Nude Ants anyone?

Does anyone recall this great early 80's New wave band from Westchester county in New York? I believe they were from New Rochelle,New York,at least that is what the back of their albums tell me.They did two albums in the early 80's.Actually one was just an EP.The other was a full album and it was called "Searching For Tornado Victims"

They had some great songs like "In Business" We're On Holiday(We're From America) They sounded like a few different groups at times.One song has almost an early Police sound,and then there are some songs that sounded alot like The Bus Boys at times.But much more New Wavey than both groups.And nowhere near as commercial as The Police.Plus,they were much better as far as obscure New Wave goes.

My recollections of that first album are very hazy. I just remember all the songs being longer than I would have preferred, and I remember thinking that the first song on that album with the black and white cover was too long to kick off an album. I don
