“Wonderlust” was the third and final single released by The Fallout Club a British synthpop and new wave band formed by Irish singer Trevor Herion, the experimental drummer Paul Simon, Thomas Dolby on keyboards, and bassist Matthew Seligman released on October 19th, 1981.

Trevor Herion – Love Chains (UK 12″)

Burning The Ground Exclusive 1983

“Love Chains” is a 1983 new wave song by Irish singer Trevor Herion born John Trevor Herion, (April 1959 – October 1988) he formed part of the punk and new wave scenes in the 1970s and 1980s. He later became a solo artist, but was not commercially successful and died in 1988.

During the late 1970s, he was the lead singer in a locally successful pub band called “The B-52s”, who later changed their name to “The Puritans” on discovering the existence of the similarly named US band. Failure to land a recording contract meant the band’s dissolution but shortly after he was called to join as lead singer in a new wave band called The Civilians comprised of Paul Simon (ex Neo and Radio Stars, on drums, Mark Scholfield on guitar, and Michael French on bass. The band only released two singles and disbanded in 1980.

By 1980 or 1981, Herion and Simon reunited in another band, The Fallout Club, alongside former Bruce Woolley and The Camera Club’s Thomas Dolby and Matthew Seligman. They only released three singles.

After Fallout Club split up, Herion went solo. He released a number of singles and an unsuccessful album called Beauty Life (1983), an album produced by Steve Levine. Nevertheless, an argument over the unauthorized remixing of a 7″ version resulted in Levine taking his name off the album and refusing to promote it.

During the 1980s, Herion began to suffer from severe depression. He died from suicide on 1 October 1988.
