I've got Moseley Shoals and a compilation album called Songs For The Front Row.   I dig them both immensely.  I haven't explored their other albums in full but have been meaning to for some time now.

Great band!


I'm off like a herd of turtles.

I've got the Songs from the Front Row, and Marchin' Already.  I got into them after seeing the intro to Lock, Stock and Two Smokign Barrels, where they play 'Hundred Mile City", which is a great tune.  Ive been meaning to get some of their other stuff, theyre excellent,.  My friend has Mechanical Wonder so I've heard that album, and I have heard a few of the songs from Moseley Shoals.  Theyre a very good recent group imo.

yeah, they are a great band, some really original stuff.
They are often ignored, but were pretty big at the time of bands such as Oasis Pulp and Blur etc.
Hopefully going to see them soon


Whats the matter lads? Blue Meanies?

They are a great band. Went quiet for a while and some of the members (Steve Cradock, Damon Minchella went on to help out Paul Weller for some touring and recording. The best way to sum them up with a Beatle song is 'Hey Bulldog'...It's like the blueprint for their sound.'

Moasley Shoals is definitely the best album. Tracks like 'Day We Caught The Train' and 'Riverflow' are quality. Used to cover quite a bit of their stuff.

I got a nice drum skin signed by Cradock, Minghella, Alan White and the mighty Weller himself.

They were huge during the 'Britpop' era of around 5/8 yrs ago.

That crappy frog is. lol

Hip-hop certainly is dominating but it's festival time over here in UK so I'm sure there will be a new influx of great guitar based music coming back in. Especially with the releases of the new Coldplay and Oasis albums.

Ocean Colour Scene - Marchin' Already (1997)

Faboulous sound and arrangements (the guys on their mind in some songs) and different styles with a very inspirated melodies.
It's like Abbey Road LP + The White Album LP.
I recommand it.
