Flesh For Lulu formed in London in the early 1980s with Nick Marsh on vocals, John Fryer on guitar, Stephen Mallinder on drums, and David J on bass. Their first album, 'Big Fun in the Funeral Parlour' from 1982, included the track 'Decline and Fall' that became something of an anthem for them.
David J left the band in 1983, and they continued as a trio. They put out two more albums, 'The Gift' in 1983 and 'As a Child' in 1984. Songs like 'Time And Space' and 'Restless' came from this period.
By the mid-1980s, the group had effectively dissolved. Their run was brief, but those three albums left a specific kind of dark, atmospheric post-punk that still gets mentioned when people talk about that corner of the early '80s London scene.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
