Altered Images were an early 1980s Scottish new wave/post-punk band. Led by lead singer Clare Grogan, the band branched into mainstream pop music, and had six UK Top 40 hit singles and three Top 30 albums between 1981 and 1983. Ex-school friends with an equal interest in the UK post-punk scene, Clare Grogan (vocals), Gerard Caesar McInulty (guitar), Michael Tich Anderson (drums), Tony McDaid (guitar) and Johnny McElhone (bass guitar), sent a demo tape to Siouxsie and the Banshees, who soon gave the band a support slot on their Kaleidoscope tour of 1980. The bands name referred to a sleeve design on the Buzzcocks single Promises, and was inspired by Buzzcocks vocalist Pete Shelleys constant interfering with the initial sleeve designs. Title track from the 1981 debut album. https://youtube/watch?v=rYgPb8tpyI0
