Another one of my favorite bands from the 80s is working on a new release, Cock Robin. They were never strictly new wave, but I guess in part because of the synth element to their music they were tied in to a small degree. I always remember a reviewer describing them as combining the hillbilly harmonies of the Louvin Brothers with the sonic sound-bed of OMD. I always thought that was a good description.
After Here Through Midland is one of the great overlooked classics of the mid to late 80s. Don't know much about the new release yet.
