The Jezebels were always attuned to the darker side of romance and sex, unlike the shiny, neutered pop yearnings of their contemporaries. Like most early 80's bands, they'd been weaned on glam rock, but it was the underground that was receptive to their punk-funk undertones and vision. Fronted by androgynous twins Jay and Michael Aston and featuring an evolving cast of musicians, the early recordings had an experimental edge that has kept the music fresh. Long unavailable, this classic catalog is finally re-issued in double disc packaging. "Discover" CD 1: a Top 40 UK chart entry, this was the album that got the band signed to Geffen in the US and introduced the classic line up. CD 2: this bonus disc includes some tracks never before issued on vinyl, let alone CD, which were only available on cassingle.
