Flesh for Lulu is an gothic/alternative rock band formed in 1982 in the UK.
History
Nick Marsh (vocals and guitar) and James Mitchell (drums) formed the band and soon recruited Rocco (originally from Wasted Youth, guitar and vocals), and Glen Bishop (bass). They signed to Polydor Records in 1983,bassist Glen Bishop was replaced by Kevin Mills (formerly of Specimen) but the label dropped them a year later after their first eponymous album failed to find any commercial success. Some rumours abounded that a session bassist was used on some tracks of the debut album.
In 1985, the band signed to Statik records and released a mini LP, Blue Sisters Swing which was produced with Craig Leon then they joined Hybrid Records, who released Big Fun City later that year. The next year, the band signed to Beggars Banquet Records, and their song "I Go Crazy" was featured in Some Kind of Wonderful and saw some airplay on American college rock radio stations. This allowed Flesh for Lulu to sustain a successful tour of the US. In 1989, "Decline and Fall" followed and became a top 15 hit on the new Modern Rock Tracks chart. The next year, "Time and Space" became their biggest US hit, hitting the top 10 of the Modern Rock chart, but the song failed to chart on any other US chart. However, the band dissolved soon afterwards.
