158.0. "House Of Love" by SHAPES::FIDDLERM () Tue Aug 02 1988 14:47

    
           Has anyone heard a group called 'House Of Love' ?  I heard
    one of their singles (Destroy the Heart ) on Peelie last night,and
    I was well impressed.
          Can anyone tell me what their album is like,is it as good
    as the single ?

    The House of Love are a relatively new Indie band, recently shot
    to stardom by the ravings of John `Baldie' Peel.  The Indie band
    of the eighties (where have I heard that one before).  But they're
    not that bad, and yes, the single is pretty good.  They have a debut
    album out under the same name which is meant to be, well, alright.
    
    The House of Love are playing at the Carribean Club in Reading on
    Saturday 6th August.  (I think it's the 6th but I may be wrong.)

    Ooops, I lied.  The Carribean club is in Basingstoke, Priestly Road.
     I got the date right though.  They are also playing at an all day
    bash at the Town & Country Club on the following Sunday.  There
    are lots of (fairly) good indie bands playing on this, including
    the Jazz Butcher and My Bloody Valentine.  The House of Love play
    at around 9:00pm.  Full details in this weeks Melody Maker.
