Nuvo Bloc – Atomic Fiction [7''] (1980, Not On Label)

 

Nuvo Bloc formed in 1980 when members of Adelaide groups Terminal Twist, The U-Bombs and Lemme Caution grew tired of playing straight-ahead punk rock. With Vonni Rollan on vocals, the six piece band quickly attracted a large audience and released their self-financed first single 'Atomic Fiction' later the same year. The dark new wave sounds of the single could almost be an entirely different band to the tribal stylings of "Never Mind", released on '5MMM's Compilation Album of Adelaide Bands 1980' by the local public radio station. Frustrated by music industry disinterest, the band soon splintered, with three members heading to Sydney to continue briefly as an electronic trio. [SOURCE: LAST.FM]
