Awesome track from 1981. The Fallout Club was formed by Irish singer Trevor Herion, the experimental drummer Paul Simon, a young Thomas Dolby on keyboards and bassist Matthew Seligman. Herion and Simon formed the band shortly after the demise of their previous group, The Civilians,. Dolby was formerly in The Camera Club.

The band only released a few singles: Falling Years/The Beat Boys, Dream Soldiers, Pedestrian Walway, Wonderlust/Desert Song (Happy Birthday Records, 1981 – above). The group was short-lived and split-up shortly afterwards. Wonderlust was one of the hardest 12″ singles to find and was available in North America as an import only.

One of the classic 80s tracks – John Foxx‘s Underpass done up in a remix by Mark Reeders. Some serious Gary Numan influence going on here too.
