Heaven 17 - how men are album cover | |||||||||||||||
How Men Are is the third album by the group Heaven 17. Following the commercial success of their second album, The Luxury Gap, How Men Are had disappointing sales.
The album was released in late 1984 and marked the beginning of a more acoustic edge to Heaven 17's music. Where previous albums had relied heavily on synthesisers, songs on "How Men Are" also used brass and string instruments in their arrangements. The opening track "five minutes to midnight" used a series of vocal effects as percussion and backing. Three singles were released from this album: "Sunset Now" and "This Is Mine" in 1984 and a remix of "...(And That's No Lie)" in early 1985. The third single was a shorter version of the 10 minute album track and was unusual in that it featured the whole of the song title inside brackets. This remix was the first single to fail to reach the top 40 chart since "Let Me Go" at the end of 1982. Notable contributions on this album were made by backing group Afrodiziak who performed an extended vocal on "And That's' No Lie". Track listing: 1. "Five Minutes To Midnight" 2. "Sunset Now" 3.
