HYSTERIA UNKNOWN
CDS/?
(SERMON, 1992, SERT002CD)

1.Hysteria Unknown
2.My Dark
3.Walls
4.Sea

The first single I owned, and I loved it.
This was a huge triumphant blast of a single, a magnificent bluster with some superb suede-esque (although, in my opinion superior) guitar work...
According to another website I found on the band, this was released February 1993, although the CD I have says 1992..hmmmm
Worth tracking down nonetheless.
Was anything else released on Sermon??????????

1.Time For The Rest Of Your Life
2.Motorpsycho Nightmare
3.It's So Easy

Q Magazine's single of the year, and with good reason, for this is an amazingly great single, again the swagger of Suede (hell, the Doors or something) comes up with a biting guitar line and tremendous power.
It swirls up and away..great...
