sounds great, would love to see a Crime tribute band, pre-shoegaze MBV sounds fun too

even not knowing what they looked like i knew that was going to be the umbrellas. their latest album is "how many 80s twee pop references can we stuff into every song". i can't hate on it tbh, it's a level of music nerdery i can respect

I need to catch up with Slumberland, I haven't paid attention for several years now

I saw Swansea Sound a few months ago, great gig. although not as good as seeing Heavenly last year (never saw them in the 90s because I only got into them just after they broke up after Mathew died)

fwiw, start with any of The Reds, Pinks and Purples albums in Slumberland, just absolutely killer. Will also vouch for The Umbrellas and Chime School.
