Video Friday: early 90s

Oct 30, 2009 11:22

Chris T showed me the site Nuggets of the Future, filed with alt-rock faves from the early 90s. The listing of the Posies' "Solar Sister" and the band Revolver inspired me to look back at some videos from back then... which seem to be mostly British, so I'll break it up with some Americans as well.

Lush!!!!!! I love Lush (and the other three bands here). Have you (did you) ever listen to the Pale Saints?

I don't know the Pale Saints, where are they from? Are they early 90s as well?

I had a big crush on the girls from Lush, as every alt-rock loving fellow did.

In late 1990, Meriel Barham, the original vocalist from Lush, joined the band as second guitarist and vocalist.[1][2] Barham contributed backing vocals and guitars to the Half-Life EP, then joined permanently for the Nancy Sinatra cover "Kinky Love", which gave the band a minor hit single, and the Flesh Balloon EP. In 1992 the band recorded their second full-length album, In Ribbons, which was produced by Hugh Jones.[2] Ian Masters left the band in 1993.[2] Former Heart Throbs bassist Colleen Browne joined afterwards.

All these videos get multiple high fives.
