Sheerlux - Lonely Hearts 1979



Born out of the ashes of early Auckland Punk band The Stimulatiors. Sheerlux mark 1 replaced The Scavengers as the resident band at the legendary Zwines nightclub in 1978. But things can change quickly. Sheerlux mark 2 were more New Wave than Punk. They adopted a new image, a more professional attitude and improved their musicianship. Which was seen as selling out by their former Punk audience. Although now hated by the Punks their following grew. This was their only single. Released by WEA in 1979. They broke up soon after in 1980. Steve Roach and Jim Juricevich went on to form The Techtones.
