Lupine Howl - Vaporizer EP

 

 

LUPINE HOWL

Vaporizer EP

2002 Beggars Banquet

 

Notes :

Psychedelic indie rock band from Nottingham, England.

Sean Cook, Jon Mattock and Mike Mooney were members of Spiritualized until that group's leader Jason Pierce dissolved the lineup in 1999. The trio quickly decided to form a new band. They kept the spaced-out psychedelic soul sound of their previous incarnation, but blended it with old American soul and a '60s garage sound. The group released two albums and a handful of singles before disbanding in 2002.

01. Vaporizer (Radio Mix)

02. You Get Inside Me

03. Vaporizer (3D Mix)

04. Vaporizer (Leon Alexander Mix)

Alpha Stone - Soulweed

ALPHA STONE
Soulweed
1997 BOMP!

Notes :

Psychedelic indie rock band from UK formed by Pete Bain, original member of Spacemen 3 and later The Darkside.

''Soulweed'' is their second album, released in 1997. Review from allmusic.com :

''Whether intentionally or not, this sounds like the heroin user's music of choice: comfortably numbing, pulsing layers of fuzzy/distorted guitars, electronic rhythms, throbbing bass, and exotic touches of theremin and oscillation. Pete Bassman/Bain adds some vocals in a half-spoken, half-sung style that's vaguely reminiscent of a very subdued Iggy Pop. Those who appreciate intricately constructed songs will lose interest pretty quickly. Fans of the album, though, will be quick to note that it's precisely the point of the record to deconstruct conventional song forms in favor of mantra-like grooves and atmosphere''

05. Ghost House

Baggy Ravers 1

24 January 2024

 

Notes :

The first in a series re-invigorating and needlessly tinkering with tracks from the late 80s/ early 90s when the UK's indie bands (any many others) went baggy and assorted DJs and producers gave some often pretty ordinary tracks a whole new lease of life. 9 tracks loosely re-fitted featuring Intastella, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Andrew Weatherall (RIP), Youth, Hypnotone, Danny Rampling, The Psychedelic Furs, Fluke, Tears For Fears, That Petrol Emotion, The Lilac Time, The Shamen, Brian Eno, The KLF and Rowetta!

Airhead - Funny How

Airhead (formerly Jefferson Airhead) is a British indie-pop band that achieved some success in the early 1990s, at the tail-end of the Madchester music movement.
Forced to change their name from Jefferson Airhead due to its (deliberate) similarity to Jefferson Airplane, Maidstone band Airhead achieved minor UK chart success with singles “Funny How” and “Counting Sheep”. After releasing one album and a handful of singles, they were dropped by label Korova and released their final record, the That’s Enough EP on Mother Tongue. They are probably best remembered for “Funny How”, which although not their highest-charting single was played heavily on BBC Radio 1 at the time of its release.
