The Lotus Eaters was the name of an
1980s New Wave band from
Liverpool,
England, whose
single "First Picture of You," from their
debut album,
No Sense of Sin (
1984), became a
hit in the
UK. They had toured extensively throughout
Japan, despite arguments with their record label over there.
In
2002, The Lotus Eaters, reduced to the duo of
Peter Coyle (vocalist) (born
25 January 1962, in Liverpool) and
Jeremy Kelly (guitarist - formerly with
The Wild Swans) (born
8 April 1962, in Liverpool), reformed after almost two decades, to record and release a new album, entitled
Silentspace.
