[b]the Chameleons, three great albums and zippo recognition.[/b]
Check out also the newly reformed Weta.
Hoodoo gurus, the clouds and the black sea, all quality oz stuff.

I take it that you're not including The Fan and the Bellows in the 3 great albums bit? Burgess and Lever also formed The Sun and the Moon following the Chameleons demise, and they brought out an interesting eponymously titled album.

Rather coincidentally, I'm sat here converting my Chameleons vinyl collection into MP3's as I sit and browse the forum.

i only really rated one song on the sun & the moon album, (just my opinion of course) and yeah, my bad, forgot about the F & B album.

CountZero - can't believe you walked out on 65dos and thought them dull. Are you sure you got the right band there. This is the 65dos who sound like an explosion in a god factory! 😉

Each to their own I guess..! 🙂

Rusty Spanner - lol - nice association there - God Machine rocked. Bit depressing for everyday listening though I find! 🙂

Loads of great suggestions, totally agree with Bob Mould (genius), 65 DaysofStatic, their recent London gig ended in a powercut, damn shame also Grizzly Bear although now they've been on Jules Holland they may not be that unknown for long. Screaming Tea Party, Over The Wall, Errors, vastly underated Modest Mouse, Apples In Stereo and another nod to Les Savy Fav and Yo Lo Tengo.

And bring on ATP this weekend, more underated bands than you can throw a stick at.
