Bis, you may recall, were the first unsigned band to appear on Top Of The Pops with this little number...
Somehow makes me thin of Enon nowadays... anyway, Rin plays live in London on September 8 at the Fly, New Oxford Street. Tickets are seven quid advance. More information on MySpace.

with someone called Juno!
I've got it in my hand, it's on orange vinyl. It's ace. This in mind, I hope the album is also excellent.
SUGAR SUGAR KANDY POP!
PUSH IT DOWN AND PULL IT UP!
This is Fake DIY's a great tune as well.
yay!
amazing.
I love her, I love her, I love her so.
Technically, Suede were the first unsigned band to appear on TOTP - their 2 single deal with Nude had expired at the time.
I am the Indie King. Hear me bore.
Good news indeed,
I hope it's suitably electro-tastic like the Kitchen.
capital news!
more power to manda rin. the black kids stole her schitck, after all.
what became of john disco, though? he had the best name.
Gawd
I remember seeing it on TOTP, which ages me no doubt. I thought it was awesome!
I hope the solo record will be equally kiddy and katchy.
John Disco and Sci-Fi Steven!
They are still making music in an electro band, Dirty Hospital.

the opened reading 1998
they were fucking hilariously bad and i was very very stoned. it was a jarring but weirdly enjoyable experience.
also, i saw a picture of the guitarist playing a barre chord on a guitar which i had found too difficult to master. i was so infused with jealousy that such a terrible musician could play them that i didn't leave my room until i could.
thanks bis, you taught me barre chords.
