The ready adaptability of this Brixton quartet enabled them to rise from the ashes of London's ill-fated Batcave scene — a curious association to begin with, since these mascaraed, leather-clad poseurs are more closely related to old-fashioned rock than gothic grave-robbing. With undisguised superstar aspirations, they signed to Polydor and released two excellent singles (Restless and Subterraneans). The self-titled album that followed, despite the inclusion of both songs, sinks into the mire, an overlong, overproduced '80s punk take on the Rolling Stones (check the cover of Jigsaw Puzzle), a commodity for which there is no pressing demand.
