@TEMPmichaelhansen Actually it does have that loop. If you listen to a higher-quality version at a sort of high volume, it is easier to hear. Very subtle, though.
A great rock and roll band, heavily influenced by the British post punk scene (gang of 4, wire, pil etc), but instead of just taking they managed to sound very fresh and contributed some great music to the otherwise awkward 80's. (the 80's gets a bad deal, it wasn't totally rubbish, even the new romantics movement was at least creative and progressive, The Human League s 'Being Boiled' is outstanding, although it's before they had those haircuts and the chicks!)
Hey thanks for posting these two together like they belong. I made a CD mix for my car once and tried to put them together but didn't realize it had that one second automatic spacing and it drove me crazy. My favorite songs on one of my top 5 favorite records ever... thanks again!!!

A prog punk band, they often get compared with Husker Du, but i would say there are more similarities with This Heat.
