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)

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

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

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

Jacob's Mouse

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.

Done Lying Down
Rosa Mota
Hyperhead
Daisy Chainsaw
Some Have Fins
Silverfish
Bivouac
Midway Still

plus many many more useless fucks who were unavoidable if you went to gigs in London in the early 90s.

Part of that was an xpost. Now it's just confusing. Don't imagine anyone is paying too much attention to my ramblings by this point anyhow.

(xposted again)

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:06 (thirteen years ago) link

I think I said somewhere on ILM that the Hyperhead album is the worst album I've ever bought. Mind you I liked my Silverfish album ("Cockeye" iirc) at the time, put it on recently, and christ what a horrible noise.

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:07 (thirteen years ago) link

Silverfish singer had a trip-hop album iirc (man there was a lot of trip-hop landfill)

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:08 (thirteen years ago) link

I suppose Die Cheerleader belong here even though I really liked them and regret selling their cd

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:08 (thirteen years ago) link

Yeah Hyperhead are maybe the only band in history you could accurately describe as sub-Gaye Bykers On Acid

xpost

Satantango! (Matt #2), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:08 (thirteen years ago) link

I had Lesley Rankine's triphop album too, yes. Ruby! (xposts)

The Cateran
RPLA
Bomb Disneyland

Satantango! (Matt #2), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:10 (thirteen years ago) link

Chap wants a BEST poll. I say WORST poll. What does everyone else think?
I think worst is best because it's in the spirit of the britpop/landfill polls. Also I think it will get more votes

haha RPLA

Don't think this was too bad. Don't think it was too good either.

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:11 (thirteen years ago) link

xp would rather have worst (because I am a ball of spite)

oppet, Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:12 (thirteen years ago) link

Cable
Tribute To Nothing
AC Acoustics

oh god I'm in the Camden Underworld and it's 1993 again

Satantango! (Matt #2), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:12 (thirteen years ago) link

There is nothing good about any of these bands so has to be worst

Satantango! (Matt #2), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:13 (thirteen years ago) link

there was a really good american band called Cable and a really bad UK one

Most of these bands are terrible so it has to be worst imo

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:13 (thirteen years ago) link

therapy & the wildhearts are the only good ones (unless fudge tunnel are included)

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:14 (thirteen years ago) link

worst

although I am surprised about the relative warmth itt for its contents compared to the Britpop flotsam

Jari Litmandem (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:14 (thirteen years ago) link

Wonder if anyone would call themselves Cable in this day and age.

ka£ka (NickB), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:15 (thirteen years ago) link

Leatherface wrote some bangers tbh and are genuinely respected in certain albeit rarified circles

Jari Litmandem (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:15 (thirteen years ago) link

i think thats because most of the shite here didnt sell or last. Britpop did.

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:15 (thirteen years ago) link

The Abs

ka£ka (NickB), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:15 (thirteen years ago) link

Milk

ka£ka (NickB), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:16 (thirteen years ago) link

Or do I mean the Milk Monitors?

ka£ka (NickB), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:17 (thirteen years ago) link

chap please do a worst poll

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:17 (thirteen years ago) link

I like two songs by AC Acoustics :(

I also bought a compilation because it had Tribute to Nothing on once (also for a track by Monkey Boy, who are probably not for this thread but whom I'm sure Matt #2 will have seen, quite possibly in the Camden Underworld) and apparently it contains Muse's first ever track and is accordingly worth some money to some sad bastards. Or was, at one point.

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:17 (thirteen years ago) link

'Stunt Girl' by AC ACoustics was alright imo

ka£ka (NickB), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:18 (thirteen years ago) link

think rare Muse stuff sells for nutso smasho prices, if you still have that comp (it's an Organ one, right?) you'll still be quids in I reckon

Jari Litmandem (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:22 (thirteen years ago) link

Headcleaner

ka£ka (NickB), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:23 (thirteen years ago) link

It's on whoever Tribute to Nothing's label was at the time. Lockjaw? Helping You Back To Work or sth?

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:23 (thirteen years ago) link

sorry yes that's the one indeed

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

Hm! Thank you, DJM, might revive one of the many "eBay or Amazon Marketplace?" threads a bit later on.

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:28 (thirteen years ago) link

Crashland
Symposium
Vex Red
Midget

Milk were indeed a UK band.

Run Westy Run Megatorrent (MaresNest), Thursday, 24 February 2011 22:28 (thirteen years ago) link

'Symposium' and I read the whole thread, soz

Run Westy Run Megatorrent (MaresNest), Thursday, 24 February 2011 22:40 (thirteen years ago) link

Shitposium more like

Satantango! (Matt #2), Thursday, 24 February 2011 22:46 (thirteen years ago) link

Gashland

Satantango! (Matt #2), Thursday, 24 February 2011 22:46 (thirteen years ago) link

Tribute To Shite

Satantango! (Matt #2), Thursday, 24 February 2011 22:47 (thirteen years ago) link

BivouWACK amirite

dimension hatris (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 24 February 2011 22:49 (thirteen years ago) link

Symposium might just be the worst imo, but the relentless coverage in the NME didn't help either.

Run Westy Run Megatorrent (MaresNest), Thursday, 24 February 2011 22:51 (thirteen years ago) link

I'm sure I remember a feature where they compared the on-stage smashability of various guitars. That's rock, that is.

oppet, Thursday, 24 February 2011 22:55 (thirteen years ago) link

the whole sneering backslapping lols of the landfill indie thread is revolting so i, as the OP of this thread, politely request that chap make it a 'best of' thread

NI, Friday, 25 February 2011 00:03 (thirteen years ago) link

cable, tribute to nothing, bivouac, symposium belong in this list. paradise lost don't, nor do all the acts that made it bigger in the 00s (muse, feeder etc)

NI, Friday, 25 February 2011 00:05 (thirteen years ago) link

ian he already made it 90s hard rock Nostalgia Fest of HELL (UK and Ireland)
