    Well they did release a new album last year (first in 25 years!) so they're obviously making a comeback. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLx5jlt2yynkBd030WeAChCDMRvYp2ML3

    The Slightly Obscure Music Discussion And Quizzy Thread

    Finally got to see this (English) band live in concert last November in NZ, though I've been a fan since the 80's. Crazy to think this song which was released in 1988 seems more relevant today than back then..
