Hadn't meant to post this one but over on Willfully Obscure their first album was posted and I knew I had this somewhere. So here in all it's 80s glory is their second album. More of the same really, a few more synths, more backing vox, bigger production etc. The singer, Mark Shaw didn't improve much from the first one though, and really isn't all that great a singer. His limitations are well and truly met on the track Darkest Hour. But for all that the earnest delivery is mostly aided by the lack of perfection. And the band had a great sound.

As a side note. Most guitar players seem to want some kind of retro, vintage, "tube" sound. This is where I mostly come from though. Sparkly, chorused clean sounds. And distorted sounds with some transistorised grit in them, utterly 80s. And boy does it piss people off.
