Gene Loves Jezebel has been classified as 'Goth' but they are also most definitely new wave. Another term I've seen bandied around: Rockwave. Whatever.
One thing's for sure: their signature song "Desire" is a great groove. The high vocals are off the charts and drive the tune. Also a decent guitar solo.
In the video, the twin brothers that form the core look as if David Lee Roth hooked up with Platinum Blonde for a festival gig.

I don't remember "Desire" charting when it was released in the mid-80s in Nova Scotia but I used to hear it in the clubs when I moved to Vancouver in the early 90s.
Unmistakenly 80s, it's a fun trip with some nice production worthy of a spin every once in a while.
