There are multiple groups using the name "Strangelove". 1. A British rock band 2. A British hip-hop group The dark side of the '90s Britpop revival, Bristol's Strangelove married Patrick Duff's deep, lovelorn croon to a spider's web of glistening guitar lines which Radiohead held as an early influence. The poetic, purple wine-tinged grace of their first two drug infused albums has not dated in the intervening years and while their final eponymous release suffered from the tensions tearing the band apart, their legacy of Bad Seeds/Doors inspired epics and frantically crawling the walls poetry endures. Great B-sides too. Following the demise of the band in 1998: Patrick Duff went solo - eventually releasing the album "Luxury Problems" in 2005 on the EMI imprint Harvest. Guitarist Alex Lee joined Suede briefly for their swansong release "A New Morning" before cementing his place in the live Placebo line-up. While the remaining members Joe Allen (bass), Julian Pransky-Poole (guitar) and John Langley (drums) formed Saturation Point. At the time of writing (August 2007) Duff is currently prepping his second solo release with the assistance of Lee.
