Marcie's Still Waiting - A Mysterious Song 12'' 1985

Marcie's Still Waiting were a German new wave band from Bochum, deeply influenced by the work of The Cure, but more cold wave oriented.

As far as i know, they only released two EP's, “A Mysterious Song" in 1985, that i found some days ago in Barcelona, and “Mirrors & Daydream” in 1986, plus an appearence in the compilation 'Rock Around Bochum' from 1988.

The 12'' was recorded and mixed at Mollycat Studio, Velbert-Langenberg. Drums played by "A good friend", not mentioned by name.

What i found is the first edition distributed by "Wishbone Records" (toy bear with drum)

Tracklisting:
A1 Mysterious Song
A2 Unique World

Aimless Device - Hard To Be Nice 12'' 1985

Aimless Device existed from 1985 to 1989 and mixed Cold Wave / Rock guitars with drums and the occasional synthesizer. The band was founded by Bart Azijn and Patrick Meulemans. Their first mini-lp “Hard to Be Nice” gave them modest fame across Europe. Besides Belgium they toured France, Germany and Spain.
