Trysome Eatone by Love Spit Love

Trysome Eatone, released on Maverick in 1997, turned out to be the second and last album from Love Spit Love, the band Richard Butler put together in 1992 while the Psychedelic Furs sat on ice. He'd started it with guitarist Richard Fortus, drummer Frank Ferrer and his brother and Furs bassist Tim Butler, and what he meant as a solo project had become a band in its own right.

Ben Grosse produced, and the sound strips back from the Furs' swirl to something leaner and harder. The Los Angeles Times heard it edging toward post-punk and industrial rock, The Washington Post noticed the space in the arrangements and the jazzy turn of the closing track, "November", and The Hartford Courant rated it Butler's most varied work in over a decade. Butler's melancholy croon is still the draw, and "Fall on Tears" is the song that found a countdown. The band went quiet by 2000.
