How do the various members of Terrorvision spend their time these days?

Real TV. I saw them support the wildhearts. I also saw Baby Chaos support the wildhearts.

Three Colours Red were a poor mans Wildhearts for the NME/Melody Maker readers who were scared to RAWK.

Great american band here ian, but it will remind you of being 15 because we spoke about this years ago when i 1st met you. Girls Against Boys. Kerrang used to love them but despite their support they just didnt cross over.

same with Urge Overkill and the fabulous God Machine.

I gave up on Therapy? with Infernal Love. It was an awful awful album. But the 2 early eps and the Nurse album still hold up very very well and Troublegum is stil a good album too.

Although "Old Folks" was pretty great, I suppose.

*any shite bands I saw were because they were on a bill with people I did want to see, I swear I have no regrets about any bands I paid money to see ever

No no no!! "Infernal Love" is fantastic, think of it as the In Utero to "Troublegum"'s Nevermind.

The one after ("Semi-Detached") was great too, though it all went a bit bleh after that (started sounding far too much like the Wildhearts, oddly).

And Morgan Nicholls plays bass for the Streets (and covered for Muse's broken-fingered bassist at festivals last year).

Swygart's a big fan.

... quick Google ...

Cass Browne.

I loved Symposium/Midget/Snug/3CR/A et al when i was 14/15. All good fun. Not enough also-ran-indie these days :)

just C+P the url in a browser with no spaces.

Blameless! That's the band I was going to post about but someone beat me to it. They were actually pretty good.

And that (albeit american) band Brad - they released a really really good album that was sort of Pearl Jam meets classic Soul (a lot better on tape than on paper).

Not quite the same style but somehow I just got an image of the naked woman on the front of all the Electrafixion stuff.

Troublegum is one of the best albums ever. Therapy? deserved much more.

He also went to Mali with Damon Albarn for that album. Delakota did one single on London Records after that first (Polydor) album and that was that, I think.

Too bad nobody knows what all of these Evening Session people are up to. I would love to know about the office, shopkeeping or civil service jobs.

Don't you remember him discussing this way back on the old nme chat? (does that still exist?)

I remember all of these bands, and even did onstage monitor mixing for leatherface at a couple london gigs, so I might have been at gigs some of you were at, way back in 199x. Redd Kross I still like loads, or at least "Phaseshifter" by Redd Kross I still like loads. A happy-hardrock classic! in places it sounds kinda rundgren-ish.

This is the thread where we reminisce over not particularly good Evening Session bands from the late 90s

x-post. I have 2 Compulsion albums. I played them not that long ago and they seemed to hold up quite well.
I'd be happy to YSI them if needed.

Tell me more about the Wolverhampton Slade Rooms

should have called them the Slade Roomz

i have no idea, all i know of Wolverhampton is the Mol and Woolworths and i'm assuming the Woolworths has gone

what happened to Tony Wright, did Never Mind The Bollocks stop calling him

Buzzcocks ffs

Acoustic On Tour doesn't really sound very much in the spirit of Slade to me.

Mama Weer All Janglee Now

not sure I want to hear about Tony's long, dark night of the soul, or alternatively a bunch of Terrorvision and Almighty songs on the acoustic guitar

Almightyvision

i like to picture this has Tony just playing "Tequila" 8 times in a row to 3 blokes on the bandit

I hope shutty is on bongos for both acts

Tony will be presenting Acoustic TV alongside Milly (from Terrorvision) and exploring a host of old and new songs in the acoustic format.

Acoustic On Tour will be featuring classics from Thin Lizzy, The Almighty, Black Star Riders, Terrorvision and Ricky and Tony’s solo projects.

Milly was the trumpet player in Terrorvision from 2005 onwards, which doesn't feel like an intrinsic part of the band to me.

I kind of wish Ricky Warwick had done this tour with Mike Edwards of Jesus Jones instead, then he could have called it Christ Almighty.

I suppose they relax with some chick called Alice and constantly ask her "what's the matter?"

so my band is supporting Tony Wright as Acoustic TV in Milton Keynes on Friday. Big tings!

So were Terrorvision the unnamed band in the Luke Haines'(of the Auteurs) spectacularly bitchy autibiography?

excellent news dog latin! i trust you will blow him off stage

steady on, i liked them when i was younger but not that much.

wahey!

:)

How did it go DL?
