This seemed like as good a place as any to try and gain some more info on this band. As far as I know they only put out one 12". Anyone know the title? Or if they did more stuff.
I just remember the song being fantastic in a trad goff kind of way.....
If anyone can enlighten me further........

I saw the "
Christabel Children" on the same bill as
"Rosetta Stone" and the "
Screaming Marionettes" years ago, they had a really tall guy and a wee blonde girl on vocals, I remember they went on about "Environmental issues" a lot, well it was about '89
, sorry, but I don't know about any records they released, it was about the first and last time I heard of them.

Definitely one 12" single, as i pickd up a copy many years ago from goth uber shop Ressurection Records in Camden. Supported Christian Death way back i believe. Record is in storage at the moment. i'll try and dig it out for title & tracklisting.

Hey, my Mum is the 'wee blonde girl'. Her name is Anna Dupres, if you were wondering. The band split up a long time ago, but now she has her own band called Gigi Le Jarre.
As for the 'really tall guy', we don't know him anymore, but I think he lives in America and is quite rich.
