The 90's.

[Granny Gremlin]

Uwe, it is a rare talent that you are able to find a '90s band' that sounds like they stopped paying attention to new music in 1983 and haven't realised that metal moved on without them. Doubtless they got signed by A&R men with the same syndrome.  They're not bad, they're just relics in their own time.  The best thing about them is that despite sounding a bit hair metally, they don't look it; leaving the bulk of their visual style as well as their rythmn section to draw from classic 70s metal instead.

... the firebvird playing dude went on to do this (basically invented the Big Beat genre):



(some of you may find this somewhat familiar - an older version of this appearred on The Acid House soundtrack, had dolphin noises in it)

I JUST KNEW there must be a reason why I liked them!  Ah, Jake, you really mean my preference for music with monkish chants dates me? Even if they are budding ex-Pistols bandmates?

I'm always late to every party, by a decade:

  I was a punk in the 80's, a goth in the 90's and a Raver in the 00s

so for me the 90's was all about NIN, Mariyn Manson, Killing Joke, local heroes Suede and of course the brief resurgence of the Sisters of Mercy

B'ah, that's only half a decade late at worst. I had some gothy periods, but never went whole hog with the fashion (expensive; otherwise you just end up looking like a nerdy beatnik who lost his beret along with his lunch money).
