A always will be a record execs idea of "imagine sting fronting one of thse new fangled alternative rock bands it would be great and bring the money in!"

Nakh come on aim

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:18 (thirteen years ago) link

Wolfsbane, Little Angels and Quireboys seem like a diff't thing, not just cos they're older but there's an evident trickledown effect of NWOBHM which you absolutely don't have in... Reef

Jari Litmandem (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:18 (thirteen years ago) link

yeah but they were fucking shite

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:18 (thirteen years ago) link

Are Lostprophets and Sikth too late for this?

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:18 (thirteen years ago) link

no, good call Rebecca!

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:19 (thirteen years ago) link

All these 90s threads are bringing back long repressed early gig memories. But 3 colours red, reef, and A on the 99 version of the nme tour...IT HAPPENED.

oppet, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:20 (thirteen years ago) link

oppet, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:21 (thirteen years ago) link

Raging Speedhorn :(

(maybe I'm just picking the ones from after I stopped liking this stuff to save myself the embarrassment of remembering ones I really did like)

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:21 (thirteen years ago) link

Biffy Clyro have been around a long time but Im guessing as they only just got big they would skew the poll

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:22 (thirteen years ago) link

RACHEL STAMP

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:22 (thirteen years ago) link

King Adora

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:22 (thirteen years ago) link

Queen Adreena (again, possibly leaving the 90s for this one)

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:24 (thirteen years ago) link

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:27 (thirteen years ago) link

some of my friends on Facebook are friends w/ the irl person Rachel Stamp (who the band named themselves after because they wanted to bone her), it always brightens my day when I see her posts

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:35 (thirteen years ago) link

Rock is not my world, but if Pitchshifter are legit, Fudge Tunnel too?

portrait of velleity (woof), Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:36 (thirteen years ago) link

fudge tunnel were great. but pitchshifter did go really poppy so merit inclusion and its going to be a worst poll.

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:37 (thirteen years ago) link

don't see a lot of convergence between reef, pitchshifter and the 80s matchbox bla

Rachel Stamp were formed in 1994 when David Ryder-Prangley met Will Crewdson before recruiting Cliff Harris and Mike Rowe.

......................

In 2010, Will Crewdson and David Ryder-Prangley have been playing alongside Adam Ant for performances around London. Crewdson is also currently working with a band called LIVAN, fronted by Greek-born musician Cosmas Livanos.[1]

You still haven't listed Skyscraper! It is a conspiracy! Just because apparently nobody else remembers their existence...

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:45 (thirteen years ago) link

I remember Skyscraper actually being pretty good, is my memory deceiving me?

Neil S, Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:46 (thirteen years ago) link

Good work. Sorry, been watching Human Planet. Poll should be up soon! It will be for the BEST band.

Inevitable stupid dubstep mix (chap), Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:51 (thirteen years ago) link

I liked them at the time but the tracks I've remembered enough to dig out haven't aged well at all, I think it's fair to say.

^ don't know if Snuff count but this song was fucking great and one of my favourites from the late 80s/early 90s. ONly mention them cos they seem tied up with the whole Senseless Things/Mega City Four scene.

ka£ka (NickB), Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:52 (thirteen years ago) link

If anyone votes Reef for best I am going to drink several litres of the alcopop of the same name (which I suspect you can't even buy any more, for added 90s retro and also added past-sell-by-ness) and come round and throw up on their carpets.

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:53 (thirteen years ago) link

Not going to include Muse, as they're too big now, or Lostprophets or The Darkness as they're more 00s bands.

^ Somewhat more embarrassingly, I heart this song too. Dunno if you're allowing fraggle though

ka£ka (NickB), Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:57 (thirteen years ago) link

Swervedriver maybe?

ka£ka (NickB), Thursday, 24 February 2011 20:58 (thirteen years ago) link

did they even get written about in Kerrang? I mean that has to be the baseline requirement right

Jari Litmandem (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:00 (thirteen years ago) link

I liked Skyscraper (or at least i had 1 or 2 singles)

remember X-CNN? lol

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:00 (thirteen years ago) link

neds didnt get covered but Swervedriver did
SO DID CATHERINE WHEEL as they went RAWK

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:01 (thirteen years ago) link

chap please dont do best band do worst (or both)

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:01 (thirteen years ago) link

Jacob's Mouse

ka£ka (NickB), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:03 (thirteen years ago) link

The Tanya Donnelly bits of that Catherine Wheel song with Tanya Donnelly on are quite good. The Catherine Wheel bits not so much.

Kerrang! probably just excited by the Bruce Dickinson connection.

(Which tangentially reminds me via the lineup of Bruce's solo backing band - what an oxymoron, never mind - do Gun count? I know they were barely rock at all by the time they had a real hit...)

I sorta liked Jacob's Mouse. They wanted to be the British Tar. They didn't quite make it, but still.
