The Palominos’ next album, 1985’s Visions of Excess , sounded vastly different. Of the band members that were on the first album, only Fier, Laswell and Arto Lindsay remained. Visions of Excess also marked the debut of singer Syd Straw , whose songwriting and vocals were featured prominently, as well as on the group’s next album. Michael Stipe , John Lydon and Jack Bruce took turns on lead vocals, while Richard Thompson and Jody Harris were featured on lead guitar.
