Only new girl at work reckons "Rat"?? is her boyfriend
Yes..
They're shit.
NED'S....where have you been living for the last 20 years!!
Cool - always liked them 🙂 Well, I say always - I mean a bit in the early 90's
I’m almost a pensioner, what do i know about pop groups? 🙂
One or more of them went to my school
used to love a bit of 'NEDS'! I could often be seen sporting a neds t-shirt in the early nineties.

YOU FAT BASTARD, YOU FAT BASTARD, YOU FAT BASTARD. 😀
Neds Suck!
Certainly takes me back - liked The La's too, Wonderstuff (I know Miles Hunt was named above), what else - Ride, Mock Turtles, Inspiral Carpets - there were loads of bands around. Railway Children too...the names just keep coming back.
Ok, enough reminiscing, where were we?
I remember Ned's
as for missing bands...EMF they're awful.
It was that whole Grebo thing wasn't it, Crazyhead Zodiac Mindwarp etc.
I crewed for them once at a gig at uni. 🙂

No Doubt?
I [s]crewed for them once [/s] got roped into lugging amps and kick-drums by some crusty in exchange for half a pint of warm cider at a gig at [s]uni[/s] Tipperary Poly once
Yeah,
They were all shit.
Tipperary Poly
😆
You knows it 8)
Sensies shortsleeve over poppies long-sleeve and all-stars down below. Every shade of cool I think you'll find
I think you'll find that all the cool kinds from the local boozers they used to frequent would have been laughing histericaly at you dressed like that. 😉
I still remember the poppies walking into the pub after they'd been on TOTP and getting laughed out of the place. 😆
Inspiral carpets??
Insipid Lino more like.
you had to pick your bar carefully not to get beaten up. Bottle of K cider anyone?
See you in the Purple Turtle...
what was that band fronted by the blonde chick
Sarah Cracknell - Saint Etienne?
Not forgetting Echobelly. Mmmmm Sonia
CURVE! That was it.
Toni Halliday.
Why did I think she was blonde? 😳

Blonde chicks - Transvision Vamp? Still like the music to this day.
Liked Louise Wener from Sleeper - although she was brunette.
My mate at Uni was Loz from Kingmakers cousin, he played bass, quit for Uni just before they made it 'big'.

Jesus Jones
Mountain bike link there as well!
(Incidentally, the latest Fighting Wolves single sounds [i]just[/i] like a Jesus Jones tune. Which is a good thing.)
Oh, and this thred (sic) needs more Lawnower Deth
I thought you were a big hair rocker CFH?
Thousand Yard Stare
Cud
The Family Cat
New FADS

AET[/url]
Poodle Permed Cock Rock is my main thang, Stoner, 'tis true, but have a soft spot for certain of the more rocky indy acts that were around back in the day. And Jesus Jones. 🙂
Besides, that is a simply epic cover track, no matter who did it!
pop will eat itself?
i once worked with a girl who said she'd dated Rat, Sarah i think her name was?
This one isn't a Sarah
Lawnmower Death....yea gods
Saw them a few times...im sure they used to do quick covers of adverts and such (quick fit, and shake n vac)..then they used to get you to do silly things like run in a circle and fall over and do the dying fly.
If were doing the 90's movement then World of twist....what happened to them?
Stoner - Memberyou had to pick your bar carefully not to get beaten up.
You'd not have been beaten up for your worshiping of a few local lads that couldn't play for shit.
Just laughed at a lot. 😉
no one likes a shoegazer 😉
Donk that would be Snuff
Stoner - Memberno one likes a [s]shoegazer[/s] rich kid trying to fit in
😛
GBOA were where it was at.
They even played at the mighty JB's.
They had two bass players I think?
Oh those where the the days.
Stripy t-shirt and para boots.
Just got tickets to see Jesus Jones, Wonderstuff and PWEI on the same bill.
Doesn't Mr Jesus Jones do a bit of mtb journalism now.
surely the covers of Shake n Vac etc were the legendary Snuff. Loved them, still do actually. Their I can see clearly now is top banana.
All those bands were a lot better in my head until I listened to them again recently on Spotify!
I saw Loop, World Domination Enterprises and Godflesh on my 21st birthday, apparently.
Blimey, I remember Neds Atomic Dustbin... I thought they were fab at the time - with the benefit of hindsight they were pants!
Named after an episode of the Goon Show, doncha know?
Doesn't Mr Jesus Jones do a bit of mtb journalism now.
Not as far as I know. Last heard of planning a December tour with The Wonder Stuff and PWEI.
Perhaps you were confusing him with Mike Davis? He of "Ballistic Squirrel" fame... 😉
I thought they were fun. Played at Uni when I was "studying" there.
oooooo NEDS such a flash back, was listening to curve today...and lush.
Neds, Carter and Cud were playing in London on Saturday night.
Oooh..Sultans of Ping FC "Where's Me Jumpah"
Seen them do that live a few times.
Put in on the playlist for my mate's wedding to a German girl last year. I'm not sure the Germans knew what the fleck was going on when the chorus started. 😆
Saw Lawnmower Deth in the tent at Download this year! They are... older. Good fun though, very relaxed on stage.
Has nobody mentioned Fuzzbox yet? They went back to punk roots - they couldn't play intruments for &*^*^. Saw them a couple of times.
At Uni one of my mates knew PWEI and we went to all their gigs when they were in town. Who would have thought that one of them would go on to win an Oscar for a film soundtrack!

...and Curve were never part of the Neds, Carter, CUD, Stuffies crowd, none of which I ever liked. Saw Lush a bunch of times, best gig was at Moles, in Bath, where the stage was only about 6" high. I was stood on front of Emma, and had to keep leaning back, because she was moving, swinging her bass from side to side, and if I hadn't moved back, I'd have got a Fender headstock smacking me in the nose! Curve were brilliant live, bloody loud, and pretty aggressive, and should have been massive. I'd love to see them reform and tour again. Pretty influential, too, I keep hearing newer bands with hints of Curve about them; early Asobi Seksu, in particular.
6Music played the Sultans of Ping's 'Where's Me Jumper' only last week, haven't heard that in years!
Mega City Four anybody? I saw them, Jesus Jones, Ned's and the Wonder Stuff on the same bill in 1989 at the Barrowlands. Saw the Wonder Stuff touring 8 legged groove machine a couple of years ago and the were still pretty good. Miles Hunt though, perfect for rhyming slang.

Dead on arrival, the 90s revival...

What can I say, Im genre defying 😉
The female singer in bleach once trod on my foot at the Mayfair in Newcastle when they supported ride
Happy days
Always had a soft spot for Slowdive. Basically Ride songs pitched down 10% and with the reverb adjusted from 10 to 11 🙂
anyone remember sunshot? they were fab and good night said Florence?
I once got clouted on the back of the head by the NEWFADS basist* at a very "intimate" gig somewhere in coventry (or was it solihull?)
* not him, his geetar obviously,
never heard of them tazz.
I still listen to all my Tindersticks stuff though.
Neds they used to drink in the Mitre, PWEI in the er was it Swan? Little place just before the ring road
I could often be seen sporting a neds t-shirt in the early nineties.
Another thing they had in common with pwei (and, IIRC, James) was that they famously sold many more t-shirts than records.

blimey, you sound like a right cheerful chappie! 😉
just remebered the jokey gaye bykers on acid spin off lesbian dopeheads on mopeds
going through old vinyl now....Birdland, jeesus forgotten them, their cover of Patti Smiths "rock n roll n..ger" was brilliant....vague memories of snakebite and black and pernod sicups at that gig.
