Moreau's Island - As Big As It Gets




MOREAU'S ISLAND
As Big As It Gets
1998 Japan

Notes :
Really obscure and unknown indie band from UK, released few singles on various labels from 1995 to 1998. I've tried to find some info on the net, who are the band members, short biography about the band, but there's nothing to find.
Also there is no info on Discogs for ''As Big As It Gets'' album, i only found on Amazon that this is probably compilation of their material released in Japan. Great album from this hard to find band.

Kinky Machine - 10 Second Bionic Man




KINKY MACHINE
10 Second Bionic Man
1994 Oxygen

Notes :
The band was formed in West London in late 1991 by Louis Eliot (vocals, guitar) and Julian Fenton (drums), adding Johnny Bull (guitar), and Malcolm Pardon (bass guitar). After signing to the Lemon label and releasing two singles in 1992, both hits on the UK Independent Chart, third single "Supernatural Giver" was a minor hit, and they were signed to MCA Records offshoot Oxygen. Further minor hits followed with "Shockaholic", which preceded their eponymous debut album, "Going Out With God", by which time Pardon had been replaced by Nick Powell, and "10 Second Bionic Man", before their second album, Bent, was released in 1994. They toured with Ned's Atomic Dustbin and Manic Street Preachers, and drew comparisons with Pulp and Mott the Hoople, with Allmusic identifying influences from glam rock, punk rock, and Sergeant Pepper-era Beatles, and The Encyclopedia of Popular Music author Colin Larkin also comparing the band to The Only Ones.They moved on to East West Records for a final single, "London Crawling", before splitting up in 1995 after Fenton had joined The Lightning Seeds, to be briefly replaced by Anthony Christmas. They had become disillusioned with the Britpop sound, with several of the bands that had supported them in the past (including Supergrass and Elastica) overtaking them and becoming prime movers in the scene, Eliot explaining "When we started, we were delving into British pop music for influences, from the Kinks and the Jam and Clash to the Beatles. All that Britpop became very boring." Eliot and Bull re-emerged in 1996 with Rialto, with Eliot later recording with a new band, the Embers.

Nilon Bombers - Nilon Bombers EP




NILON BOMBERS
Nilon Bombers EP
1995 Almo Sounds

Notes :

Nilon Bombers were a britpop band from Cheltenham, formed in 1992. They split up in November 1996.
The line-up was Drew Norton (vocals, guitar), Gareth Ballard (guitar, vocals, bouzouki, keyboards and violin), Martin Williams (drums), and Kim Dorman (bass).
They released an album titled ''Bird'' on Almo Sounds in 1996 which was produced by Kim Fowley. It was described by Roy Wilkinson in Select as combining "Mega City Four's Transit-frequenting worthiness with the everyman rock of Ian McNabb...stultifyingly competent". Their most successful single, "Superstar", reached no. 96 on the UK Singles Chart in May 1996. The band's final single, "I'm Not Built for This", was described by Tania Branigan in Melody Maker as "Two years too late for New Wave of New Wave".
In July 1996 they were a last-minute addition at the T in the Park festival at Strathclyde Country Park where they were first on in the King Tuts Wah Wah tent.
After the band split up, Williams went on to form Silverman.

The Wordsmiths - Penicuik 1990




THE WORDSMITHS
Penicuik 1990
1990 ???

Notes :
The Wordsmiths were a Scottish Indie band from Penicuik outside of the city of Edinburgh. They formed in 1990 and their music was inspired by the 'Baggy' sound of Madchester. As well as the C86 Indie movement. They came from small towns Penicuik and Loanhead in Midlothian, Scotland. Which enabled them to distance themselves from the mainstream. This in turn helped create a varied and random collection of Indie sounds for the discerning listener. They split in 1992 and the members when onto form new bands.
The Wordsmiths were: Rev Mulvey (Guitar, Vox, Programming), Del Romano (Guitar), Riccardo Romano (Organ, Vox), Steve K (Bass), Pus Dunn (Drums)

Ajax - Mind The Gap



AJAX
Mind The Gap
1989 Wax Trax! Records

Notes :
Ajax is an American, New York-based band, led by female singer Arleen Mitchel. The outfit released the single "Mind the Gap" in 1989, on Wax Trax! Records. A full-length self-titled debut LP followed, which combined industrial and acid-house music. The album, and its two singles failed to chart.
Mitchel revived the name in the 1990s, most successfully on the 1995 single "Ex-Junkie" which became a minor club hit. "Ex-Junkie" is the band's first (and to date last) entry on the Billboard Hot Dance/Club chart, peaking at number 48.
