Another ex-punker's "new band" (after having looked at Public Image Ltd yesterday), this time Howard Devoto who had just recently departed from the Buzzcocks.
Whereas John Lydon went more abrasive and confronting, Devoto added layers of melody, musicianship and quirkiness.
There are still hints of a punk identity to the music but it also suggests a more complex pop sound along the lines of a band like Sparks.
