Presence - Act Of Faith (1992)

[Reality Records LOLX 3]

Presence was the band Lol Tolhurst formed upon being kicked out of The Cure and prior to his current project with his wife in Levinhurst. Together with Michael Dempsey (The Cure's bass player until 1979) and Gary Biddles (one time - 1982 - The Cure tour follower and ex- Fools Dance) he put on a band with some Cure in it albeit more electronic and housey. Should Biddles sing on a different note and not so much in a Smithy way their songs could be much better.

The CDsingle has one extra track (Soft). I'm still searching for it as well as of the other two singles.

Presence - In Wonder 12" (1991)
[Reality Records LOLX1]

Presence was a short lived project Lol Tolhurst formed after being kicked from The Cure in 1990. They released an album, "Inside". This 12" single was taken from that album as was "Act Of Faith". If anyone has that other single (7" or 12"), or "All I See", please help me ;-)

The vocals tried to mimic Robert Smith's and were courtesy of Gary Biddles. Gary Biddles used to follow The Cure around in 1982 and even sang on Forever sometimes, besides being part of Fools Dance, the band formed when Simon Gallup was away from The Cure between 1982 and 1985, along with Matthieu Hartley. Presence comprised other band members like Shelleyan Orphan's Roberto Soave on bass and Then Jericho's Chris Youdell on keyboards. Roberto Soave also played on The Associates alongside ex Cure bassist Michael Dempsey and when touring with Shelleyan Orphan supporting The Cure during The Prayer Tour in 1989 substituted Simon Gallup at least once (when the latter was ill).

A side run off groove etching: Wall Building.
