Wonderful pop 6 piece featuring Big Ross and Little Ross on Guitar and vocals, Debbie on bass, Warwick Wakefield - vocals and dance, Dominic Stone - guitar (3Ds). The band went on to record an EP and an album for Flying Nun, were heaps more promising than they ever managed to be.
They did an excellent version of a classic New Zealand track - "I Need Your Love" by Golden Harvest.
"Love Your Alien" is taken from a live recording at the Gladstone. The band also had a track Biding Our Time which lent it's name to the second Failsafe Compilation, a phrase that seemed to sum up the New Zealand band predicament of being incredibly gifted sitting on the edge of the world waiting to be discovered, biding it's time.
