Not forgotten as they’re still going but the references on this really date it

And this! And more 90’s references

#215

I enjoy references to the 1990s.

Are Hefner classed as forgotten? A classic band from this era:

Bonuses points for a fan-made video with pictures of cats.

Probably not forgotten (not by me anyway, big fan of Darren’s solo stuff) but still the same era.

One of the many new radioheads

Because of Lockdown, I have yet to meet my niece, Alis, but when I do I can’t wait to ask her ‘Alis, what’s the matter?’ every single time she cries.

First time I ever saw mclusky was with Helen Love and Mo-Ho-Bish-O-Pi. Good times.

Anyway,

I saw these live once, they were much better than expected.

I love this song, dreadful lyrics and sub-Muse basslines and all

Bionic is a forgotten classic but this song sounds like Stand Inside Your Love by the Smashing Pumpkins…

Half of the band were British/Irish and they were London based.

Anet Mook the singer was from The Netherlands I think. Great band though, the second album would have been so good.

#224

Yeah and the guitarist too I think.

Anyone else remember the Monsoon Bassoon?

Choon. Didn’t make the association with Sylvia Plath at the time as… I hadn’t heard of her

#227

Yes, loved this when it came out on 7’ but weirdly never got the album.

I think one of them was in the cardiacs and is now part of the utopia string with Steve Davis!

#228

Yeah, Kavus Torabi. He’s been in Guapo and Gong too.

#229

Brilliant band.

Dunno where else to post this, but was looking for Jetplane Landing on Spotify the other week and noticed that the entire Smalltown America catalogue has gone.

Turns out the label shut down (4 years after last releasing anything) tail end of last year

Sad that this seems to have gone unnoticed given how important it/JPL were in underground UK music in the mid 00s. There’s a bunch of records I have a lot of nostalgic affection for that are now just unavailable.

(Disclosure, I was involved in running the label for a number of years in the mid/late 00s when it was based in London)
