Look Back In Anger



And here's another not so well known, female fronted goth band. Formed in 1981, Look Back In Anger were from Southampton and did a lot of gigs together with bands like the Sex Gang Children, Play Dead, Blood & Roses and Brilliant.
Their first release is the self produced 'Caprice/Mannequin' 7". In 1983 the band released a cassette only single 'Foxhunt/Life's Dispute'. In this year Look Back In Anger went on tour as support for Death Cult.
The band almost had a contract with Expulsion Records but the label collapsed. They managed to release 2 records for the cult Criminal Damage label.
The 'Caprice' MLP was produced by Billy Duffy (Theatre Of Hate, Death Cult).

You have a killer record collection. Thanks for sharing the vinyl that I haven't heard in so long. What's next ?. Blood & Roses ?. Brigandage ?. Martian Dance ?.

Couldn't agree with English Paul more. Found your site by searching for Inca Babies - I have the first three albums and was a bit disappointed the CD didn't cover more ground. I have a very similar 80's vinyl collection (would recommend Belfegore) and was wondering if you are using a USB turntable to convert to mp3's as that is the way I was thinking of going?

Thank you both for the appreciation.
highlander, I just connect my turntable through my stereo onto my PC. I also use magix to eliminate as much vinyl noise as possible.
Belfegore is a band I still need to have some records from. There's still enough records that I want to achieve. Collecting records seems to be endless...

I love this band. Is there any more material by them? And where are they now?

Curious Guy said...

Well there's the Caprice/Mannequin 7" as well as the Foxhunt cassette single but I don't have these.
Jim Newby later joined The Fifteenth (see elsewhere on this blog) and the singer auditioned for the later Skeletal Family but it didn't work out. She did some backing vocals for The Cult and Balaam And The Angel.

Your record collection is a treasure, but why do bloggers keep using mediafire...it has turned into complete garbage !

I know but I use another filehost for a few months now, after mediafire suspended my account. I only re-up when people ask for it.

Thanks very much for this. I particularly enjoy the talents of the lead vocalist.
