This Gigantic World - Hoover Bag / Raft

 

 

THIS GIGANTIC WORLD

Hoover Bag / Raft

1990 World In Action

 

Notes :

I'm always excited when some hard to find record arrives on the blog. Korova Milk Bar ''Head EP'' & This Gigantic World ''Hoover Bag / Raft'' are very very long time on my TOP 10 most wanted records list and finally they are here. Huge thanks to my friend who purchased vinyls and rip tracks, making available these obscure records for everybody on this site.

 

''Head EP'' was first single released from Korova Milk Bar album ''Milk Plus'' and it was ptoduced by Richard March from Pop Will Itself.

 

This Gigantic World is obscure indie rock / baggy band from Manchester and first time on this blog. I found some great reviews on Manchester Digital Music Archive site and it was one of the bands that i desperately needed for my collection. 

They released two singles ''Hoover Bag / Raft'' in 1990 and ''Swagger'' in 1993. Third single ''Everyday Living'' was recorded but band split up and it was never released.

Before 6 or 7 years i've contacted their vocalist, he told me that they finished digitazing their records and they have plans to release them on any label or some digital platform. But all these years nothing happened.

1990 Sugarbeach Records

 

Notes :

After few years on my most wanted records list, finally i found copies of Manifeto and Sandkings singles, i hope that more records from this list will be posted on the blog, soon.

 

''Walking Backwards'' is madchester inspired single by Manifesto, track taken from their self titled album released in 1992 on Fire Records.

 

I was looking more than 10 years for this CD single from Sandkings with remixes of ''Earthwheel'', i'm very happy that i have copy in my collection to complete their discography.

Great UK indie/baggy band from Wolverhampton who released one album ''Welcome To England'' and few singles, their vocalist was Jas Mann who later formed Babylon Zoo.

02. Earthwheel (A Cultural Mix)

03. Respect And Criticize

04. Earthwheel (Pushy Mix)
