Profile:
Sad Lovers & Giants are a rock band from Watford, England who formed in 1980. Their sound blends post-punk, atmospheric keyboards and psychedelia. Following their debut EP Cle and the Colourless Dream single, both issued in 1981, they released two studio albums, Epic Garden Music (1982) and Feeding The Flame (1983) before splitting in 1983. During this initial period they'd recorded a John Peel Session for the BBC and a live concert for the Dutch Radio Hilversum station in 1983 which was subsequently released as the album Total Sound in 1986. After the split they returned in 1987 with a new lineup, and this process of splitting and returning with a modified lineup has happened a few more times since. In 2014, Garçe Allard published Things We Never Did (The Story Of), an autobiography of the band. The band operates as a collective.
