Fronted by glamorous singer Anne-Marie Hurst, The Skeletal Family were at the forefront of the Goth Rock movement of the 1980s. Compiled with the full involvement of the band, who have opened up their archives for the project, this 5-CD set boasts all of the Skeletal Family's independent recordings for the Red Rhino label between 1983 and 1985. Both of the band's albums Burning Oil and Futile Combat are included, alongside all their non-album singles, B-sides and rare compilation appearances. For the first time, many of the band's unissued BBC sessions for John Peel, Kid Jensen and Janice Long are also included. The fourth disc concentrates on live material, drawn principally from a show at Folkestone Peter Pipers (01-03-84) and a later show with Anne-Marie's replacement Katrina Phillips. It culminates with a version of Bob Dylan's 'Knocking On Heaven's Door', with guests Andrew Eldritch (Sisters Of Mercy) and Wayne Hussey (The Mission). The fifth and final CD boasts a clutch of demos of previously unissued, brand new songs by the modern-day Skeletal Family, alongside earlier demos and some live reunion material.
