Saw them twice in 1994 at my local venue. We just took good live bands for granted back then and never thought the supply would dry up. How wrong can you be?
I loved this band so iconic in their pomp but my god they ripped the hell of out of The Stranglers baselines that John Jack Burnell did superbly well. This is Nice and Sleazy baseline repeated over and over. Infact throughout most of their tunes it was stranglers baselines that were in their songs. Very clever, but alas they got caught out and Stranglers did have them on it. I seen them live few times and they were special as well, Brit Pop times. Mid 90s was special time for British Music so many superb bands around at that time.
Damon wrote or “co-wrote”, wink wink, most of the good songs on that first album. Reason why they could never replicate it and imploded once they broke up.
I liked them at the time. When I watch it now, all I think of are other bands, the other bands they sound like. There is no sound that is actually their own, except her voice which is not great. lol.
They sampled those songs. Justine was a huge hip hop fan and appropriated sampling to great effect IMO. Lots of rock artists did the same thing and didn't get flack for it. The big difference is that those artists were all men.
@@annaphallactic Bullshit. People like Bob Dylan, Jimmy Page and Noel Gallagher are still called thieves to this day for ripping off other artists, it has nothing to do with being male or female. And it's not sampling, it's borrowing, which is part of the tradition of songwriting, according to Bob Dylan. Joni Mitchell doesn't seem to agree... That's why she calls him a fake and a plagiarist.
Sort of agree but they were short lived and punky. Could say similar about bands like the ramones but doesn’t make the music any less relevant or enjoyable.

The 90s ruled so hard.
It sure did. Hope all is well..
One of the most undersung bands of the time. LOVE these guys!
The drummer looks like he’s having the time of his life! I’m not used to seeing so much camera attention on a drummer
And Justine... what a repressed sexuality! 😢
if Will Kitman had chosen a different direction...
The day I mastered the Barre Chord was one of the happiest of My life....
I still have a crush on Justine 🥰
Ohh is that her name "crunch crunch"🐰🥕 interesting !
@@semprelazio8864 yep, Frischmann
Car song 2:21 that's how to do it. Their debut album is packed full of wee classics like this and none outstay their welcome.

the great song "Connection" has become soundtrack of Blackberry movie 2023
I love the aestethic of those posters on white wall 😍
Such a wholesome song!
Always love them. Never saw them live.

Well must be something to it. They sounded sometimes very Blur-ish, absolutely

These need to reform and tour
Would be cool but Donna is a nuttter these days sadly.
@@jaynbob42she’s a missionary or something isn’t she?
i wish Justine Frischmann would marry me
Is that Kim Deal on bass? 👀
No
Annie Holland
Really?
Kim never looked like a full on junkie zombie.
GTFO ;) such a talented bass player Annie Holland
Blur in another gender?
Never got the acclaim that they deserved....
Great band but shame about Wire rip off
who or what is wire Suffolk Settler post me an example
dont bother, i fail to see the assimilation. if you consider the wire as theon of prog you live in a cave
they took the wire songs (or parts) and made it better. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

One trick pony band…every song sounds the same. No range. Blur and Suede on the other hand had tremendous range.
