Notes :

Plastic Head was obscure early 90's indie band from Leicester, band members were: Mez (vocals), Merv (guitar), TC (bass) and Steve (drums).

Formed in Leicester in 1990 as a two piece and drum machine, before becoming a four piece in 1991.  The band had a very wide musical interest, with inspiration from indie, grunge and dance to a name a few, and played many gigs in Leicester at the famous Princess Charlotte, and the surrounding area.  Biggest highlight was supporting The Scumpups.  The band disbanded in 1993.

Unfortunately, Plastic Head is another one from the big list of unsigned bands from early 90's period. 

They recorded a collection of demos called ''Where's The Albatross'', great material for the first time posted anywhere on the net.
