Mid 80's Power Pop
Dr Keats:
Yeah, it does - I'd have been tempted to say it was just some bunch of guys miming to a Callaghan-vocalled track, but if you watch the vid, the musos are actually playing exactly what they're supposed to be playing...
kilbey:
Yep, agree sounds a lot like Mark Callaghan. Any other tiny tit-bits, or vague recollections? Was it on a particular show?
bazzil:
I can't remember which show this came off.
Although I think it was a local Brisbane show.
I'm not even sure why I taped it, but I did and I liked the song way back then.
So all these years later when I see it I wonder who the hell it is.
I will agree it is a bit like The Riptides' sound.

Well it's amazing what you find when you're not actually looking for it :D
Just stumbled across this Bazzil ....
Lovers In Bunkers - "Communication"
Brisbane TV appearance 1985
Lovers In Bunkers.wmv
Sounds like this was a performance as part of a Queensland Rock award show - that's probably why you taped it. From the intro it would seem this band was a finalist. Did they win? Probably not, as there seems scant info on the band subsequently.
Don't know what became of the band, or the band-members, afterwards.
I'm curious as to who the band-members are. Like some others, I was originally thinking the likes of Mark Callahan when I first listened to this.
I don't know what to make of the Lovers In Bunkers MySpace page ....

... which seems to originate from Brisbane. An original band member perhaps? Not much info there though.
Anybody heard of the band??
Cheers
bazzil:
Great job motcher76!!
Queensland Rock awards ring a bell.
I most likely taped it to see who was in the finals and kept this because I liked it.
MYSTERY SOLVED!!!
Now has anyony got a recording of "Dance to The Rhytm of Christ"?
