History
Established in June 1984, Peach of Immortality made their initial release with the album Need (Thee)! on the Adult Contemporary label. The following year, they produced Talking Heads '77, a sound collage endeavor created with the collaboration of Don Fleming from the noise rock band B.A.L.L.. In 1986, the band issued two more albums: "Jehovah" My Black Ass-R.E.M. Is Air Supply! and The Best MUX!, before ultimately dissolving. After the group disbanded, Jared Louche went on to form the industrial rock outfit Chemlab in 1989, while Tom Smith launched the experimental ensemble To Live and Shave in L.A. in 1993.
