  Were Terrorvision the people who made "How to win friends and influence 
  people" recently, and were incarnated in the past as people with wiiiide 
  flares and semi-funky music before taking on their present guise?!!
  
  If they were then it's fairly standard MOR (can I use that term in here
  without getting fried?!) and as such if you like steady rock then it's OK;
  but personally I fall asleep to stuff like that.

they're bloody good live, I can tell you.  I saw them when they played with 
"Mutha's day out" and "Valve".  It was one of the few gigs where the crowd was 
strong enough to enable me to do a bit of that crowd-surfing business.  My 
friend got concussion, and the band asked to see him after the show, to say 
sorry - don't know what for, really.  They were really nice blokes - a bit on 
the drunk side, though.  Their music is of variable quality, particularly the 
first album - Formaldehyde - but they're great fun to listen to.

    I got "how  to make friends and influence people" and I thought it was
    quite cool,very 'movable' to!!!!
1281.5NEWOA::SHERRATT_SThu Mar 02 1995 12:312
    I've now got 'formoydahyde' and that's cool as well,i cant spell it
    though!

Try Formeldehyde, or Formaldehyde, or summat.  My fav. off that album has to be 
"American TV".  I tracked down the cd single version of this track, as it had a 
pretty smart cover version of "Psycho Killer" on it.
1281.7NEWOA::SHERRATT_SThu Mar 02 1995 14:263
    cool,the only singles I could find were olivion,pretend best
    friend,middleman,alice whats the matter? and new policy one,but no
    american t.v,which probably my favourite track on the album!

They also released "My house", which included, amongst other things, a cover 
version of "Down under" by Men at work - maybe you're too young to remember it! 

8-)

It was released on two CDs, and the covers had stereograms on them.
