From their 1997 album 'Kamikaze' comes Manchester's 'Eskimos & Egypt' with a vicious assault of breaks, riffs, keyboards and Chris O'Hare's excellent vocal on 'Obsessional Love'. Eskimos were one of the forerunners of live dance, going back to 1990 with their Axl Rose slamming 'The Power of G'nR'. Other hits included 'UK:USA', 'Fall From Grace', 'Welcome to the Future' and 'State of Surrender'. They released two albums in the mainstream 'Perfect Disease' (1993) and 'Kamikaze' (1997). A second album 'The Rest Is Silence' (1995) was never released and another album 'Geek' (1999?) never saw the light of day. Definitely a band who should have been a lot bigger than they were.
First album PERFECT DISEASE was the best

That's a great track. Thought UK USA was good until I heard this. Great stuff.
