Triffids?? Triffids?? Did you say Triffids??

Never in my life have I run across another living soul who has heard of these
fellows. I bought Calenture back in the Winter of 1987 when it was released,
and it still receives a fair bit of play on my CD rack. Unfortunately, I never
heard another release from them, and wondered what ever happened to them. Any
news, old or new?
