#JayAston says #GeneLovesJezebel didn’t want to make a “dark Brexit-y record” with Dance Underwater—they wanted sun, optimism, and blue skies. With Tony Visconti dropping in to arrange strings and songs bleeding over from his side project Ugly Bugs, the album became their most band-like work in decades. “No fat on it,” Aston tells me. “Everyone worked really hard.”

Gene Loves Jezebel, Immigrant, 1985 on Relativity / Situation Two
Gene Loves Jezebel were twin brothers Jay Aston and Michael Aston, delivering post-punk with a goth-adjacent feel – most well known in the US for “Desire.”
This was their second album, following Promise. Later they had a follow hit with “The Motion of Love” from their fourth album The House of Dolls.
Relativity was a NY based indie label started in 1982 that’s since been rolled up into Sony.
My copy—via Vinyl Destination in Lowell MA—is a US 1985 pressing from Hauppage.

Found an hour-long concert video of Gene Loves Jezebel at the Reitz Union in '88… two years before I started at UF. Twin observations: (a) why couldn’t I be three years older? Things were so much cooler in the '80s; (b) In the four years I was in school I never went to a concert at the Union.
There’s a lesson there somewhere. 🤔
