AN ICONIC eighties pop band were unrecognisable as they performed at a festival 43 years after releasing a global smash hit.
The group - made up of Phillip Oakey, Joanne Catherall and Susan Ann Sulley - headlined Bristol Pride recently.
In 1981 The Human League released Don't You Want Me which became an international hit, reaching the top spot in the UK and the US.
Proving they've still got it all these years later, the group also performed at Tramlines festival in Sheffield last week.
They looked completely different compared to when they first shot to fame, with singer Phillip, 68, now sporting a shaved head.
Joanne and Susan, both 61, turned up the glamour for the show, wearing all black outfits.
The group was initially formed in the 70s, comprising of Phillip, Martyn Ware and Ian Craig Marsh.
But after Martyn clashed with Phillip, he and Ian quit the band in 1980.
Phillip later discovered Joanne and Susan during a night out at Crazy Daisy nightclub in Sheffield and asked them to join The Human League.
The new line-up went on to win a Brit Award for British Breakthrough Act in 1982.

Susan previously opened up about the process of joining the group, telling the Belfast Telegraph: "Philip saw Joanne and me together at the club, but he hadn't heard us sing.
"We were obviously friends and looked after each other. We did an audition and Joanne and I got the gig.
"I was 17 and Joanne was 18 and our parents had said no to joining a band - it was something they wouldn't have contemplated.
"We eventually got them to meet Philip and when they did they realised he was very professional - it was a job, it wasn't anything weird or sinister."
