In a few months. Nov. 2 at The Bowery Electric. Nov 10th at Howl. On haitus from teaching. Doing a series of reunion gigs around NY. A 4 song video of the band circa 1980 is part of the Museum of Modern Art Club 57 show, opening 10-31-17 through 04-18.
that is my single..i play bass and i write the riff off the song the words are by phil shoenfeld.that now he has made since 1980....16 lps ..with varius others and with his band in praque..phil also plays guitar in the song ..i dont know if alexa hunter..is english teacher.maybe//i have not talk to her in years ..the recording off the single was made in new york in the 1980..
I saw them live a bunch of times at Irving Plaza and other venues back in 1980-81. They were a fun group to watch and very much part of the NYC scene in those days.
only the lyrics on side one information are by phil..the lyrics one side 2 alor alers are by alexa .the music is by all of us .i come up with the bass riffs first and they say sounds good and we work on them .that is the truth for the record ok
jessy vincent well then, I'll definitely think about you when I see the 45 again. from what I recall it was on a clear yellowish vinyl. enjoy your day.
No information. And now, too much information. This is life. I like the wonder of speculation, but still like the ability to find out. Which is best? 1970 vs 2019. Hmm.
No problem! "You sit alone in the dark/You never make your mark/Outside history/Outside society/You're just a moment in time/Just a face in a line//And it's breaking your heart/There's no place to begin/And you're trying to break out/And you're trying to break in/You're just a moment in time/Just a moment in time//No information for me/No information for you/No information for free/No information it's true/No information/Only frustration//And there's a look in your eyes/Sometimes it seems like despair/You don't know where to look/You know that nobody cares/You're just a face in a line/Just a moment in time/You think you're going insane/There's so much you could do/Is it all in your head?/Well it's up to you/Yes it's all up to you/It's always up to you//No information for me etc...//No information for me etc...//" The song was written about my personal situation in late 70s dole queue, class-war Britain, before I moved to New York and joined Disturbed Furniture: girlfriend pregnant, no money, no social services, no hope, no information, no direction. Real kitchen sink drama stuff, like "A Taste Of Honey" or "Billy Liar". Now there's too much bloody information and it hasn't made people any freer, as far as I can see. And Britain is still at war with itself, God help us, I won't even mention the "B" word... Greetings to all my fantastic former bandmates, and especially Tony Zebe who did indeed write the killer bassline, and has a heart as big as a house... Phil Shoenfelt, Prague

Love finding these old New Wave singles. Seemed like everyone was riding the crest back then.
The bands were smaller and the crest was bigger.

the song we all wish we'd written!! nice job!
Only found this in the last year, seriously cool. Reminds me of Suburban lawns.
Do you have any other music with you on bass ? I’m interested!
Fantastic! Reminds me of Pylon. Thanks for posting!♥️Time to repeat!
AWARD FOR ALL-TIME GREATEST BAND NAME.
I agree
Butthole Surfers and Angry Samoans are better.
Whenever you'd go to a rehearsal studio in NYC you'd always see their flier.
In my top 100 favorite songs..of all time!
I saw them live a bunch of times at Irving Plaza and other venues back in 1980-81. They were a fun group to watch and very much part of the NYC scene in those days.

Agreed, they came to mind. Good tune.
Great little post-punk nugget!
Reminds me of Gang of Four with the guitar work.
