>give you Frankie, but then they were like Depeche, alternative crossovers. 

frankie goes to hollywood were targeted at the mainstream and as far as i
know they never spent any time in the alternative charts before becoming
huge #1 sellers.  shit, one ban from the BBC and any wanker can be #1!
(we're attempting to create a story about our new record being all about
pedophilia in a crass attempt to sell more units, but i don't think anyone
is buying the story... after all, it IS an instrumental piece...)

>Soft Cell I know nothing about...can't be *that* mainstream, can they?

geez, where were you?  "tainted love" was a huge hit even in the US.  they
had many successful singles in the UK.
