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).

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.

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.

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.

Am I right in thinking that the lead guy in Headswim had the fantastic name Clovis Dilweed?
Infernal Love: bad album, but didn't David Holmes do some production on it (between track static and that kind of thing)?
Oh, and I saw (the awful) Apes, Pigs & Spacement supporting the Wildhearts on what was supposed to be their farewell show- wasn't the lead singer of A,P&S responsible for Candyflip, and their baggy version of "Strawberry Fields"?
I spent *far* too long reading Kerrang! as a teenager!

RAW Magazine was great. It covered loads of indie/alternative bands that Kerrang hadn't started covering yet(preferring the likes of Skin or more trad rock/metal bands at the time- how things change!) and it was my gateway to discovering Sebadoh, when Bubble & Scrape got a 5/5 review. Same with Sugar. Which actually was no3 in the albums of the year poll that year . (its a shame rocklist.net have removed the RAW lists) but get your nostalgia fix from Kerrang insteadhttp://www.rocklistmusic.co.uk/kerrang.html#1991Scroll all the way down to 2005 and relive it all!

Would the 60ft Dolls fit here? Probably more NME than Raw, but some snotty punk goodness. Their Happy Shopper single is one I still hum to myself occasionally.

He was a bit of a cock. His long history of being laughed at started with a somewhat immature 'gay' skit on the first Meatmen single in 1980
