Description
Original 1st press on PVC Records from 1986. Vinyl: VG+ Cover: Excellent
Born in the villages of Leicestershire as an organic synth duo in 1982, Gary Knight and Cameron Lindo's moody debut mini-album, 'The Initial Caress'(Glass Records) received notable airplay by John Peel. The first proper album 'Passionfruit Pastels' was a more kaleidoscopic spin on their 'Simon & Garfunkel meets Eyeless In Gaza' sound.

Gary and Cameron then went their separate ways, Gary continuing to record and perform solo as In Embrace for the next single ' The Living Daylights' before recruiting Richard Formby (Jazz Butcher, Spectrum, Dakota Suite).Richard brought a more confident guitar-driven sound to Gary's increasingly wicked words. The second album 'Too' (Glass) was leaner, harder but no less unique. Highly praised in the now-defunct 'Sounds' and 'ZigZag' it remains something of a lost treasure.
The insanely upbeat and totally atypical 'Your Heaven Scent' single was hailed 'Single of the Month' in ZigZag. And with a big show supporting The Style Council at the Apollo Theatre in Coventry, a full-time drummer in Joby Palmer (Pre-Eyeless In Gaza)and Stephen Rees (ex-Tuffs) on bass, IE looked in danger of getting serious as an indie pop-rock band.
