Henry’s Final Dream were an English 1980s London-based post-punk band, who played the college circuit and recorded two EP’s with the Eskimo Vinyl label. They took their name from the cult movie, Eraserhead (and an illustration in Carl Jung's Man and His Symbols).
Their sound was described by Paul Morley of New Musical Express as “go-getting sax stirred art-pop… Airy melodies, self-conscious lyrics, an early Undertones with pretension – could one day be sublime.” Sheffield fanzine NMX commented, “Sounds to me (like) The Distractions too stoned to play properly and put through a fuzz-box. I like it, very much.”
