The Homosexuals - Anton, Jim and Bruno - were a legendary three-piece art-punk band that existed for only a short time, from 1978 - 81. Able to record in downtime at Surrey Sound (the studio responsible for 10cc and The Police), they developed a breathless 'do everything in two minutes' production style. Some tracks only exist as distorted rough cassette mixes, but the songs shine through the sound quality. Much of the music is beautifully recorded however, and the full complexity and audacity is like a bucket of cool refreshing water. Album Tracks 1. My Night Out 2. Technique Street 3.
