Luxuria was a duo consisting of former Buzzcocks and Magazine singer/songwriter Howard Devoto and Noko. Devoto began working with the Liverpool musician a few years after the release of his solo album, Jerky Versions of the Dream. The duo eventually released two albums on Beggars Banquet, which ranged from sparse acoustic accompaniment to involved dance beats. Unanswerable Lust was released in 1988 to lukewarm reception, followed two years later by the improved Beast Box. A number of singles were released off each record to little effect on the U.K. charts.

Not related to this post, but it's the last one, so...
The Band Of Holy Joy's track 11 won't extract... No matter how I try I get the CRC thing... Any chance of posting that track only? Many thanks in advance...
Congratulations on one of the best blogs around, and thank you for the great music (in particular the Crepuscule stuff!!!)
