 Their first release was the single "Climatic Nouveaux" / "Theatre Matrix" (MAN003) on Mannequin Records in 1980, followed quickly by the album "The Absence Of A Canary" (MAN LP1), which included the single's A-side.The 1000 copies have become a collector's item, so much so that in 2006 the German label Vinyl On Demand produced a two disc re-issue, named "The Absence Of A Canary V1.1".The original LP has sold on eBay for up to US$350.
