AGONY COLUMN - "Love In The Head" (1980)

 
Agony Column isn't a band name I would have expected there to be more than one of, and actually it's not really a name I would have ever expected to be used once. Shows you how much I know.
The Agony Column I'm talking about was a New Wave/Post-Punk band from Leeds, West Yorkshire in the UK. They formed in 1978 and disbanded in 1982. 
This song, and I think it's a pretty good one, was released in 1980.
 
What you really need to know so that you don't get them mixed up is that in the late 1980's there was a hillbilly death metal band from Austin, Texas who also called themselves Agony Column.
The members were named Crow, Red Wing Viper, Bat Lord, and Devil Chicken.
 
And if that ain't enough, there is currently yet another The Agony Column band which is a gothic doom/dark metal band from Belarus.
