History edit
Let the Tribe Increase was the groups first (and only) LP. It was preceded by three singles: Crying Again, Witch Hunt, and No Doves Fly Here, all songs which were included on Let the Tribe Increase.[3] The album was originally released in 1983 on All the Madmen Records. The address used on the front cover was of the Freedom Press bookshop in London, as all band members were living in squats and co-ops at the time, and did not have a permanent address [4]
