Blancmange is a British synth-pop duo formed in London in 1979. Consisting of Neil Arthur and Stephen Luscombe, they achieved success in the early to mid-1980s with hits like "Blind Vision," "Don't Tell Me," and "Living On The Ceiling." Despite their initial popularity decline and the disappointing performance of their third album, "Believe You Me," Blancmange reformed in 2006. They released a new album titled "Blanc Burn" in 2011 but Luscombe left due to health issues. Since then, Neil Arthur has continued to perform under the Blancmange name.
