Nobody seems to remember this band, apart from their one minor hit "XOYO" which turns up on every Cherry Red collection. There was more to them than that, of course. They put out a few records of mixed quality, leaning sometimes towards insufferably clever, but with a few real gems on each.
I was tempted to put up their fourth single "Troops Out", from 1981, simply because I like the fact that they did a song called "Troops Out" in 1981, but unfortunately it's not really that great a song (best intentions aside) so here's one from their final album Enflame instead. It wasn't produced by Martin Hannett, but you'd be forgiven for thinking it was.
