Love And Rockets is the seminal, groundbreaking trio of Daniel Ash (vocals and guitar), David J(vocals and bass) and Kevin Haskins (drums). Formed in 1985 after the first split of their band Bauhaus, Love and Rockets provided a clean slate and an opportunity to plumb the depths of imagination and influences. Everything changed for Love and Rockets in 1989 when they released their self-titled fourth album. The song So Alive reached #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and the album attained gold status. The song reached No. 1 in Canada and charted within the top 30 in Australia, and New Zealand. In the US, it was #1 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart for five weeks and was ranked No. 1 on that listings year-end chart for 1989. Billboard wrote that So Alive was the best T. Rex tune that Marc Bolan never wrote.
