They had a minor UK hit single in 1995 with "Shine". HistoryThe band's line-up, after an early experimental version of the band that included a saxophonist, comprised Paul Bardsley (vocals), Phil Murphy (guitar), Neil Daly (bass guitar), and Andy Pickering (drums).[1][2] They were compared to bands such as Magazine, with Bardsley often likened to Mark E. Smith.[1][3] They signed for Manchester independent label Playtime Records, and released their debut single, "Taste of You", in March 1993;.[1] Two more singles followed before the release of the album Sulk in November 1993.[1] The album was issued in the United States in February 1994 by Columbia Records.[1] Daly left the band and was replaced by Graham Atkinson, and the band left Playtime to sign for Columbia in the UK.[1] The band's second single for Columbia, "Shine", reached number 73 in the UK Singles Chart.[1] A second album, Dunce, produced by Craig Leon and released in July 1995, failed to achieve commercial success saw the band dropped by Columbia and they subsequently split up.[1] Bardsley and Murphy later formed Wireless, releasing a self-titled album in 1998.[3][4] DiscographyAlbums
