Pleasure Boys is an EP by the New Romantic ensemble Visage, released on Polygram Records in October, 1982.
The title track is the only of the ensemble's singles not to feature on any album.
History
This single was the first released by the Visage ensemble after the exit of Midge Ure. Ure left the project because of growing differences with Steve Strange regarding the music style of songs and the way of promoting them (Strange wanted to promote The Anvil in the U.S. riding a camel through New York's fifth avenue) and his dislike of the way John Luongo mixed "Night Train", saying the remix sounded "too similar" to the album version. Some of Visage's last album songs were developed during the rehearsals of this period of the ensemble's history.
