Heartland

Opinions please.
I can' t make them out. Stewed to the Gills is one of my favourite albums, but the rest I just don't know.

Ahead of their time or just... (fill in)

I kept meaning to buy one of their albums, but I've heard they weren't that good. Best to ask d00my.

Love them with all your Heart

And their alter ego's Lesbian Dope Heads On Mopeds

STTG is a very, very good album.
DYOH is patchy in extremis.
DYOH VHS (which I have) is a cheap production with a stupid storyline.
Everything's Groovy is still class, as is the Nosedive Karma EP.
the rest is dross

I saw them live, twice, I have no recollection

Are they wot is known as "Grebo"? Or am I getting mixed up?

Indeed young Claire , the.....more mature of us will remember a world before the word "Grunge" was invented .

GBOA were just a bad rock band with some good tunes, They defy catogarisation.

And I liked them!

I remember the first time I heard the word.

It was accusatory in tone.

And it was directed at me.

In Greenock Central Library.

Ah, how did I ever survive my youth without your calming influence?

That was my "reasonable" suggestion.

Personally I'd have run the f**ker over with a tank.

Just for accusing you of being into "grunge"?

Jeez, I dread to think what would happen if someone dared call you a goth...

They have done.

Where do you think the term "mass graves" originated?

OK, scared now.

Let's get back to talking about gay bikers.

If someone called me a gay biker...

...that's when I'd really start to get p!ssed off.

Get a Feckin' room yew twa!!!!

GBOA were a good rock band with one or two good tunes, the rest were bad tunes. Learn and move on....

Next!

Always talking about graves, you're such a Goth, Claire.

*runs*

Tony Benyon of Lone Groover and NME fame directed their early excursions into vidaeo.

2/10 - Must try harder!

Nick is a very able student, but his goth-related insults have been quite a disappointment this term.

If I wasn't immune to it now, I'd be curled up in a crumpled wreck in a corner somewhere.





Wait a minute...

I liked GBOA.Nosedive karma baby and Everythangs groovy.
Didn't they used to support every band at one time.I know I saw them a whole heep of times in the 80's.In fact my first date with Mrs Buttock was supposed to be to see them,but they cancelled the gig,which was good as I was suffering with a hangover of quite earth shattering proportions.
And didn't Mary Millington(The GBOA singer,not the rough as a bears arse 70's porn star) resurface in Apollo 440 a few years ago?

Mary (not Mary MIllington) was last heard of in that home for waifs and strays - Pigface, along with Lesley Rankine (Silverfish and Ruby), GP Orridge (various buch of wank etc.), assorted members of RevCo/Ninistry (sic) and any junkie that could strum an gee-tar.

I feel a Next!
coming on...

You Next a bit too much recently, aren't you James?
Are you trying to deliberately end threads?
And if so, what shall be your punishement for that capital crime?
