35 photos of the enigmatic band, at the Batcave in 1984

Like a human owl!

ANOREXIC DREAD - DISCOGS

Short-lived band, maybe, with just one EP, “Tracy’s Burning”, but the title track has featured on so many Goth compilations most people are familiar with them, but maybe not the fact Perry Bamonte of The Cure was once their guitarist!
