There are an awful lot of bands listed here that are still going, so they're not history yet!!

What does the question really mean? "History has
erased them?" Are you all just naming bands you
don't like? Cause we all have our cherished bands
that no one else knows about.

― squirl plise, Wednesday, 7 May 2003 00:45 (twenty years ago) link

it means 'who do you think might as well have never existed given the current musical climate seems to negate whatever influence (if any) they may have had at the time they were around'

― stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 01:24 (twenty years ago) link

I liked all the bands I named. Except Shakatak. Not sure I like Shakatak.

scattered order

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 02:17 (twenty years ago) link

They were a sort of underground, arty/weird New Order from Down Under, international folks. Then there was Boxcar, who were sort of an overground New Order from Down Under.

The Hummingbirds.

Graham Coxon.

― CharlieNo4 (Charlie), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 02:33 (twenty years ago) link

otm about the h'birds.

Boxcar had two really fantastic singles (fantastic mainly because they were shameless New Order facsimiles) and it was all a bit downhill from there.

the Australian label Volition seems to have been wiped from history in almost its entirety.

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 02:48 (twenty years ago) link

Yup, just you, me and Jim. Severed Heads were on that label too.

― colin s barrow (colin s barrow), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 02:49 (twenty years ago) link
