The Profile

English post‑punk/jangle pop band active between 1983 and 1990. Singer‑guitarist‑songwriter Davey Woodward and bassist Chris Galvin were central figures; the band's name derives from a Thelonious Monk album.

According to the provided review: the band released five LPs between 1986 and 1990 plus an earlier EP; they remained on small independent labels with limited distribution (Hooked reportedly did not arrive officially in Italy). Chris Galvin (bassist) died in 1998 from a tumor. Davey Woodward later co‑founded the Experimental Pop Band with Galvin in 1995. The group's sound shows clear Lou Reed/Velvet Underground influence.

A DeBaser review by elroy praises The Brilliant Corners' album Hooked, highlighting Lou Reed influences and memorable tracks. The band is presented as an underknown English post‑punk/jangle pop group active 1983–1990. The review recommends listening despite limited distribution.
