In 1988, the then unfashionably elderly House of Love front-man Guy Chadwick, 32, looked both ways, smearing Seventies glam rock insousiance over the transformative aspirations of the era’s widescreen alterno-rock surges, like a decadent Bono, his prayers rolled into Rizlas.
Buoyed by Terry Bickers’ guitar, fusing John McGeogh’s post-punk Banshee wail with then fashionable treble haze, The House of Love’s eponymous debut re-appears with two discs of extras, including the singles Shine On and Destroy The Heart. Bickers’ and Chadwick’s doomed romance burned tragically briefly.
