The Brotherhood Of Lizards

When Cleaners from Venus were winding down toward the end of the 1980s, chief Cleaner Martin Newell started a similar project, the Brotherhood of Lizards, with bassist Nelson (no last name). The personnel may have been different, but the music was essentially the same: ringing guitars, droll English lyrics, inventive production quirks. There were only a couple of releases, 1988's self-titled cassette EP and 1989's Lizardland album, before Nelson left to join New Model Army. Newell began a solo career that was also essentially similar to his Cleaners from Venus output. ~ Richie...
