Data Insight
Nine of the ten are Almond and Ball. The tenth is "Down in the Subway", written by Jack Hammer, so two of their three eighties albums carry a borrowed song.
This Last Night in Sodom came out on Some Bizzare in March 1984, produced by the duo themselves, and they split up the same year.
