Also known by their fans as "The Brads", the band are known for their unique mix of post-punk power along with vintage synths with big catchy choruses and a steady thumping rhythm section. Having separated in late 1989, the band reformed in the summer of 2014 after a local newspaper ran a 25th anniversary piece on their 1989 gig at Covent Garden in London. This prompted the lead singer to get in touch with his old bandmates which led to the reformation.[2]

gollark: I have immersive engineering. I literally only use the garden cloches.
gollark: I don't like immersive engineering, making multiblocks is boring and slow.
gollark: I have it mostly for the electrolyzers and some other thing.
gollark: Yes, but the generators mod is separate.
gollark: This single electrolyzer here can *probably* supply a lot, actually, but it doesn't have the heavy water for that.
