Escape Club - White Fields


#587
1986 Housekeeping
Escape Club
White Fields
Genre: U2 but with horns
4.25 out of 5

Highlights:
Fall
Blood & Water
White Fields



Yeah, yeah, I know. Cheap shot. But they really are part of that new breed of inspired by Bono and the boys. 
As for their debut? “Fall” sounds like vintage Adam Ant, so, point for that. 
This is the big 80s rock sound I had been hoping for from the likes of Duran Duran but didn’t get. Not as pretentious as U2, but in that wheelhouse.
I dug it.
