ummm, well their often lumped in with post punk, but thats a really lax way to describe them. the best way to think of them is the bridge that connects krautrock and post-punk. they have the experimental elements of can, faust, neu etc..., but theyre guitars are reminescent of wire, the fall, and mayve even PIL. they directly influenced post-rock and to a lesser extent, noise rock. for simplicity sake, lets just call them experimental. just check them out, if youre into any of the aforementioned bands you wont be dissapointed. listen to 'deceit' first, then if you dig it check out their older shit.

Deceit is a very good choice for a first encounter with this great band. The Peel Sessions is also another good one. Nice to see a thread dedicated to them.

Two UK bands along the same style from the same period & well worth you checking out are :
FIVE OR SIX ( Did a bunch of records on Cherry Red ) METABOLIST ( Stuff on their own Dromm Records ) ..and they rank alongside This Heat easy !

Top Ten all time favorite band. I was listening to the Peel session LP the otherday for the first time in a year and was just floored by the music. I like batreleasers description above...
I don't know if they'll play again but recently Hayward was performing in a band called Clearframe with some exSoft Machine guy and free jazz players, really excellent stuff, those of you in London shouldn't missit. |

I hadn't heard This Heat until I was in my mid-twenties. By that time I thought I was listening to a lot of cutting-edge, creative, and ground-breaking music. Turns out everything I'd been listening to had already been done nearly three decades ago. This Heat makes modern music seem irrelevant.

Fuck man, When I heard Deceit, I had my mind blown so hard. I lent the mp3-cd that had it (along with a whole whack of other awesome stuff from a friend) to a friend, and ain't seen it since...
Does anyone know where to buy a copy of Deceit?! Fuck, ANYTHING.

s/t and Deceit are both top class. Some of the best music from that era, definitely.
