Progressive Goth and the avante garde
Songs penned by Dave Turner and Neil Thomas became the basis for starting up The Inquisition with Granville Bowen (drums), Russell Hodgeson (bass) and later Darren Bellerby joining on keyboards.
The song-writing duo had a passion for four-tracking in Dave's home studio (a process using ordinary cassette tapes to record a maximum of four instruments or voices) and this resulted in a prolific outpouring of avant-garde and highly original music which translated very well into live rehearsals. Four such songs were developed further at Carl Stipetic's In A City studio on Canal Road, Bradford - forming the 16 track demo 'Flowers in Vain'. This showcased the live feel that the band were capable of.
