Did anybody watch that the first time around, because I didn't and until then, I had never heard Zac speak, and now I have, what a nice clear speaking voice he had. I could understand everything he was saying. Shame we'll never hear it again. R.I.P Zac.X
I felt like the world just wasn't ready for them. Their sound reminds me of early northern electronica even birth of gerage music. Then shortly after was other more famous northern bands that unfortunately surpassed EMF,The Farm,Inspiral Carpets etcetera. Even the way the journalists are covering this band proves that they just never got it.
I'm sorry he never met his uncle, but I can tell that a lot of people like me around the world admired Zac's work and that's important for him to know. Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
I was 10 when Schubert Dip came out and I listened to it through my older cousin. I always enjoyed music but this was the first album that I absolutely went crazy about, I was immediately hooked. It will always have this special place in my heart.
I hit the send to fast there As I was saying zac always was funny chatty to me al the time asking what I thought of each single that came out Fantastic memories of a great guy I salute u Mr f xxxx Peace
they got my 12 years old self to move away from pop and hip hop and towards alt/indie music. It was kinda the perfect bridge for me. I've recently revisited their albums, at the time i loved stigma more but now i can't tell. Children IS a really good song. And so is lies. These were the better songs on Schubert dip, Unbelievable sounds incredibly outdated now and while it helped the guys bank accounts (and still does), i think it didn't help them in the long run, it wasn't a good indication of their sound and it got teenybioppers into them and made them teen idols when the band was actually a lot deeper than this and had overall a more mature and darker sound than unbelievable would lead the average person to believe . Their story too is a clear example of how fickle the tastes of the public can be. When they came out britpop and grunge weren't a thing (well not in the mainstream anyway), a year later they were and bands like EMF and Jesus Jones were suddenly seen by most as sort of embarrassing to listen to. I didn't see it this way though and kept buying their records and i think in both these bands cases,their best work came after their no1 hit (which was "right here right now" for JJ). Perverse is by far JJ's best record (JJ had a clear problem in the 90s though, they were a band that had an optimistic message overall and while it has never been cool in music in general, it certainly TOTALLY clashed with 90's sensibilities. This was after all the age of NIN. Gloomy self pity was in,I should know, i was really into NIN by 1995), and while i'm still unsure now if i like Stigma more than Schubert Dip, it's still a pretty strong record. The thing is, grunge and britpop as genres have been so overdone by now (and corrupted) they seem kinda embarrassing to me now (definitely grunge anyway). Whereas i listen to JJ and EMF and think hey...why wasn't more done with THAT type of sound? Since pop/rock music hasnt had anwyhere new to go in over a decade (and probably won't ever again), i think it's time to revive that sound.
Was 15 when they were out. My 2 friends and I loved these. I'd been into the cure, pet shop boys, aha, siouxsie...loved jesus jones and all the madchester stuff. Other people in our year liked Nkotb haha...we liked EMF and fancied them too of course. Zac being my fav. You are right Nirvana came along, and the free party rave scene evolved into the superclub era, and Britpop boomed. Last thing i remember from EMF on mainstream tv was the Tom Jones thing. And being into dance music the They're here remix on a Fantasia club classics cd i had. Still got my Schubert dip tape 🤩

Derry and Zac were nuts. Used to love reading their interviews in magazines. Great times

Lana Howard always thought the same,they were at least 3 years beyond the music scene back in those days
Zac was so easy to hang out with. I miss you dude xx
My brother looks so much like my son, I miss you Zak :( From your sis AnneMarie Foley x x z
I'm sorry he never met his uncle, but I can tell that a lot of people like me around the world admired Zac's work and that's important for him to know.

EMF divines 90s era
He sort of reminded me of a Michael Hutchence in looks I mean.
James' 101 Damnatons tshirt. Would LOVE one of them thesedays.
I did t see an interview of the EMF frontman before. He doesn’t do interview? I’ve seen some with other members of this band.
The billboard at 44seconds. EMF, CARTER, COP SHOOT COP.....SHeeeeeeeyuuuuuuut! That's a great line up
I wonder if Yong blood is still on the steps that's been covered up down in the woods behind Engelhards site in Cinderford
Ha, that forest accent. I use to see a girl that was the drummers cousin.

What on earth was Zac drinking in that interview? It didn't look very appetising.
i think it is carrot juice!
I'm here thanks to a barbie movie
