Music definitely stands the test of time.Possibly the most underrated band ever to come out of Canada if not one of the best new wave bands ever.
There's not a bad song on any of their albums at a time when other artists were stacking their albums with shite,Strange Advance had no filler material.
Very cinematic...like a soundtrack in your mind.

Strange Advance is an example of how ugly the music "business" can get. While making the album Paul(bassist) was persuaded to let the other 2 contribute the songs and then he would be able to get more involved on the next 1. Lo and behold Paul's lack of contribution was then used as the lever to give him the boot. Years of friendship out the window for the glory and perceived cash. Of course he would sue. His back had a lots of puncture wounds.

Much of what was called "New Wave" was simply rock and roll but I have to say these guys were quite different. Leaving aside the outfits and the makeup, the music is terrific. Their songs were "crafted" if I may be so pretentious to say. Great stuff!

@southport97 What they look like doesn't matter. It's their musical talent that matters. That's what is wrong with the music industry, today: it's about 99% appearance and only 1% actual talent
All the best Canadian bands in the 80's wore eyeliner - lol

Duh I forgot to mention that the drummer is my brother in law Will Chapman and that is was he and my sisters wedding where I met Drew. Will and my sister live near our place out here in the kootenays BC Canada
