As leader of the Only Ones in the late '70s, Peter Perrett was one of the new wave's most enigmatic cult figures. His instantly recognizable vocals, which blended world-weary languor with sarcastic bite, and heart-on-sleeve romantic songs (like the classic "Another Girl, Another Planet") made the Only Ones one of the more interesting bands of the era. After the band split in 1981, Perrett struggled through years of drug abuse and a stop-start musical career that included the 1996 album Woke Up Sticky before rebounding strongly in the late 2010s with two albums made for Domino Records which showed that despite time and travail, his skills as an incisive songwriter or expressive singer had not diminished.
