Long-lost and finally found, Vampirella and a clutch of other gems from Dead Famous People’s London era are seeing daylight at last. After their classic debut Lost Persons Area, the band made the bold leap to the UK, where they signed to Billy Bragg’s Utility label, recorded a John Peel session, and won early fans with Dons Savage’s whip-smart pop songs. Three decades later, they have pulled together rarities from the era that have sat unheard for decades. - Flying Out
Long-lost tracks, including the never-before-released "Vampirella"! Recorded after the band's move from Auckland to the UK and their 12" EP on Billy Bragg's Utility label, these tracks appeared on a couple of very obscure vinyl releases back in the day, to relatively little press or attention . . . quite undeservedly!.
The incredible songwriting from singer Dons Savage should be enough to satisfy the discerning music lover, but her vocals are equally stellar and the band's fantastic on these charmers wonders, with shape-shifting melodies and fascinating lyrics that will weave their way into your mental core . . . in a good way!
