Just heard about them a year ago.. Total Recall is just majestic, Sounds like U2 meets Joy Division.

This is a really really brilliant clip. Thanks so much bjorn. Stuff like this always make me wonder how many other fantastic nuggets are waiting out there that I have no idea about.

thanks for passing this one along....what a shame, sounds like they could have had a whole new following in this decade, could have started them on to a reunion tour or something.

cool...A.Borland fans here...I am also a big fan of him, the Sound, 2nd Layer and also Honolulu M.Daffodils he had produced. I think I should have all his music, but still wondering if there are any alternative versions of songs flying around. I would love to hear any. Please.
The same with The Chameleons...also love them! What a time & music.

Great band. From The Lion's Mouth is a classic. Not a bad tune on that one. I just put "Skeletons" on a post-punk comp I'm making.
