      Nathan Jacobson Well they did, in a way. They were packaged and promoted by U.K. label 4AD, who had, by this time, been bought out. 4AD had already broken Pixies and Throwing Muses, who were only picked up by US college radio stations at home because they were plugged by 4AD from across the pond and licensed to US majors and marketed as “Indie”. The album was pushed hard in the UK, Europe and beyond and they hit The top ten in numerous territories including No.2 in the British album charts. Indie acts and labels are still in the business of making money. You cannot underestimate the power of UK independent labels in selling US groups back to their home nation who would otherwise never have broken through. It was a pattern that started with Jimi Hendrix, who was picked up by Chas Chandler and brought to London to be road-tested for the home and global markets. Even Nirvana used rhe UK’s “indie” circuit, network, press radio and marketing methods to help them break through back home. Indie acts don’t just rise up from the ground fully formed, they’re as carefully packaged as any boy band, if anything, more carefully to protect their credibility.

    What I just love about bands like Belly, Throwing Muses and Breeders, aside from just being the best bands around but, it's that familiar sister thing about it. For example, where Tanya sings "...he's running around again", she squeaks her voice in a way that Kristin Hersh (from Throwing Muses/ and her family) does as well.
    Kim and Kelley from the Breeders also have something like that going on where they can be hard to distinguish.
    Than figure that these bands are also crazy for each other.. that is just too much for me!
