Cindytalk – Memories of Skin and Snow
Biography
Edinburgh, United Kingdom (1982 – present)
Current line-up: Gordon Sharp (vocals), Paul Middleton (drums), Gary Jeff (bass), Sherrill Crosby (laptop) & Daniel Knowler (guitars).
The Freeze (1976-1982) released two 7inch singles,recorded two John Peel sessions and played extensively around the UK supporting many big name bands of the time. After re-locating to London in 1982,Cindytalk began to work towards their debut album Camouflage Heart,with a newer,darker and more fractured sound that drew much from post-punk and early european industrial music.In 1983 Sharp and Clancy were joined by John Byrne who proved to be a crucial component in Cindytalk’s deliberately disintegrating sound.Also in 1983 Sharp recorded a John Peel session with fellow Scots Cocteau Twins which led to a meeting with 4ad supremo Ivo Watts-Russell who invited him to appear on This Mortal Coil’s 1983 debut EP “16 Days/Gathering Dust”.He was also one of 3 featured singers on the debut This Mortal Coil album “It’ll End In Tears” (1984), contributing vocals to Kangaroo (which was released as a single and became an instant indie hit), Fond Affections & A Single Wish. Simultaneous to that release,Camouflage Heart also appeared to some critical acclaim in the UK music press.

Months after getting into this band and I still adore it. In This World is immense.

Only 122 listeners. That doesn't seem possible. Do I have the wrong artist tag? Is Last FM glitching out? WTF?

Camouflage Heart remains my favorite cindytalk album. and actually it's on my top.... 20 (?) albums of all time. Maybe top 15? I never tire of it. never.

I just finished listening to In This World for the first time. This is some killer shit, which reminds me of some of the more obscure, yet amazing, early industrial artists. I hope Camouflage Heart is equally appealing.
