Victorialand +1
I only got their Best Of or “Anthology 85-86” as they have it. Brilliant listen.
What a great thread. The best music in the world !! No wrongs answers here.
Here’s my primer for 10, based on the initial concept:
Associates – No
Simple Minds – 30 Frames A Second
Mogwai – Remurdered
Twilight Sad – Drown So I Can Watch
Geneva – Nature’s Whore
Frightened Rabbit - Poke
Cocteau Twins – Those Eyes, That Mouth
A Mote Of Dust – Cracks In The Mirror
Arab Strap – The Sky Retirer
Glasvegas – Fuck You, It’s Over
With apologies to dktraustus, as we seem to have a high degree of crossover !! But I drafted this before seeing your 10 !!
Clearly there are some right answers !!
also here’s my top 10:
mogwai - R U still in 2 it?
boards of canada - in a beautiful place out in the country
the delgados - american trilogy
belle & sebastian - lazy line painter jane
teenage fanclub - sparky’s dream
camera obscura - pen and notebook
the jesus and mary chain - sometimes always
primal scream - come together (7” mix)
cocteau twins - heaven or las vegas
young fathers - no way
Here’s a couple that aren’t on spotify so not on that list but would be so highly recommend (both from Dundee)
In no particular order:
The Associates- White Car in Germany
Cocteau Twins - Aikea-Guinea
Jesus and Mary Chain - Just Like Honey
Aztec Camera - We Could Send Letters
Josef K - Sorry for Laughing
Orange Juice - Falling and Laughing
The Blue Nile - The Downtown Lights
Boards of Canada - Roygbiv
Mogwai- Hunted by a Freak
Momus - A Complete History of Sexual Jealousy (Parts 17 -24)
I love anything Craig B has a hand in.
