There were a lot of good stuff in the so-called indie genre in start of 90's:
New Fast Automatic Daffodils
Dambuilders
Lush
Curve
Cranes
My Bloody Valentine
Teenage Fanclub
Adorable
...
Nowadays when you can hear someone talking about "Manchester sound" they often think about Oasis, Pulp and Suede. But all of them begun well known bands in mid 90's after the first wave of really good indie bands. Oasis and such may have had roots in the scene, but I don't think they ever really sounded as good as any of above mentioned bands. Even today it's possible to hear someone saying something about Mumford & Sons that "they're some indie-crap" no one likes. Then when you tell about those early awesome bands people don't know what you're even talking about.
What do you think about these bands?
Cheers.

Saw them live in -93. 8)

Well, Pulp were from Sheffield and Suede were from London...
The Manchester sound, for me, was about Stone Roses, Happy Mondays, Inspiral Carpets, Northside, The Charlatens, Paris Angels, 808 State, James, etc etc...
There was an odd period between 'Madchester' and 'Britpop'. Maybe 4-5 years. Much of the bands you mentioned came along then... for my part, I loved Lush and Curve. I'll add to that Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine, Manic Street Preachers, The Wonder Stuff, Catherine Wheel, Ride, The Auteurs, early Radiohead, St Etienne, The Frank And Walters, Blaggers ITA... a great period of music that I would take over the bloody Britpop / 'dadrock' era that got so successful in the mid 90's...
-
The Bodines were the greatest indie, Brit-pop band ever. Everything about them screamed indie...right down to their lack of bigtime success.
If you've never heard of The Bodines, youtube the song called "Therese." It is the "Sgt. Peppers," "The Godfather," the Sistine Chapel of indie music.
-
Space, that is indeed a fine tune...
You familiar with any of the other bands mentioned on this thread? Recommendations, if you want 'em, are available...

Would an emotional fish fit this thread

Pol, if they fit the timeline, they fit the thread!

I know My Bloody Valentine are supposed to be legends. I never took the time to get into their stuff. Wouldn't know where to begin now, and don't think I have the time or energy to try and get into a band from long ago.
I liked Lush a lot. Bought their records, saw them live. Great sound. And when they moved away from the shoegazing sound they still were good. The straight-ahead rock and roll "Ladykillers" is one hell of a great song. Killer guitar riff, incredibly smart, clever lyrics. That band was real good.
Liked a lot of the Madchester bands, but it was Glossop's Bodines that I found to be my favorite band from those Brit-pop indie days. They had about twenty-five songs total and every single one of them I'd rate a 10 or 9. Jangling guitars...the music they made was heaven to me. Actually could rival The Beatles in being able to craft smart pop songs. Best band that never made it. Song of theirs called "A Thousand Times (Skankin Queens)" is the greatest pop song ever made. Jangle-heaven.
-
I tried My Bloody and could just not get it. I actually tried very hard to like them and pretended that I did at about the age of 19. I was sort of in love with someone who loved them.
Mumford and sons is more folk than indie. Hardly even indie folk. Fleet foxes would be more indie folk.
I have to say i have a weak spot for the American 90's indie scene.
It was responsible for the great Elliott Smith, Pavement, Sunny Day Real-estate, Modest Mouse, Neutral Milk Hotel, Magnetic fields.
However I also have a weak spot for Belle and Sebastian and P.J. Harvey which are from the U.K.. The Auteurs, suede and Radiohead as mentioned above are also superb.
Basically indie rock is the best genre ever.
-
I used to really like the first shed seven lp wasn't so keen on their more commercial pop ish stuff, thought chasing rainbows was a excellent song though
-
Big fan of the New fast automatic daffs They were the second band I ever saw (after New Order) at the Green room in Manchester. I think I was 14/15, they were a funky revelation to my young mind!
-
My favourite from this genre was Ash. Apparently they have just released a new single. not heard it yet though.
-
I used to really like Swervedriver and Loop. Cool bands 8)
-
My favourite from this genre was Ash. Apparently they have just released a new single. not heard it yet though.
Damn, how did I miss out Ash? Terrific band with a huge string of fantastic pop / punk songs... only seen them once, they played a tiny venue in my hometown a couple of years ago, the day after supporting U2 at some massive stadium or other and they played a bloody blinder...
I think they don't release albums anymore, just release music directly onto the internet...
Anyway, see 'em live if you get the chance, mate, you won't regret it... next time they do Nottingham, I'll see you there!
-
Yeah Ash are great: Gimmie gimmie world domination!

So, they ARE doing albums again... ???
Whatever. Good tune.

Thanks Red, yep, that sounds like Ash alright :)
M/Ray, if they do Rockers again soon, we'll have to talk ;)
-
Damn, I forgot the Ride, indeed. A friend of mine was really into them and I remember a festival I heard they played a really good gig long time ago. I was there too but somehow missed their gig a bit because of my typical activities (own fault) at fests.
And the Swervedriver(!), can you remember Darkness did they release an album called Mescalhead? I've heard some of their stuff and think they're really good.
Can anyone remember the Mega city Four? I found their maxi from some second hand record store couple of years ago and was very happy about it.
-
I agree with you Amandistan about Mumford could they be pigeonholed as an indie band, or rather folk. I think they've lots of similar things as the mighty Pogues did. But maybe they share some characteristics in common with a new retro style of music that is also labelled sometimes as 'indie', or? ???

Ride were great. I saw them one year at Reading. The early EPs were brilliant. And yes Mescalhead is an album by Swervedriver. I was a huge Mega City 4 fan, their first album Tranzophobia is one of my all time faves.

I see what you mean. That's an interesting detail about history. I've heard an explanation that "indie" was seen as a British phenomenon, while grunge was an American equivalent to it. I'd think they both had something in common with and there were also exceptions; Dambuilders f.e. were from States and Hawaii. But they still had the soft pop sound in it as most of the bands labeled vaguely as indie. And how about the Lemonheads? Or PJ Harvey that sounded rather more like bands from the States?
Well, pigeonholing is always a bit silly thing to do, but I'd think there are some things we could somehow generalise. Grunge had that Mudhoney's and Dinosaur Jr:s distorted bass sound, while indie had rather soft pop and sometimes psychedelic elements. I don't know were there other more peculiar sub genre labels about indie in other (your) countries, but I've heard one: "dream-indie", which I think describes some bands quite well. :)
Also, I think Shush said quite interesting thing there in the "Australian bands" topic about a history before the indie movement in late 80's in UK. The SAW, I mean... But how did it happen in States before the grunge? One thing I've heard was that the Melvins were seen as some kind of start, or early inspiration to some of the bands in start of 90's. If someone has any clue it would be nice to hear.

There was no indie scene in America that led to the grunge explosion. Those bands may have indie-cred, but their influences were BIG stadium rock. All the indie bands were influenced by Led Zep and KISS and even Rush. They all say they learned their instruments by playing along to those records. Hendrix was an influence on all the grunge guitarists. All grunge really is is heavy rock with better lyrics.
Our indie scene was back in the early '80s. We had small labels in NY that gave us outstanding bands. For instance, 99 Records gave us the incredible Bronx dance grooves of ESG and the iconic bass rhythms of Liquid Liquid (you know who they are, the world famous bass line to Grandmaster Flash's "White Lines" was sampled off of a Liquid Liquid record.) Heb Tone records down in Georgia gave us REM. Chicago had WaxTrax that gave us a ton of indie bands, most noted being Ministry. Seattle did have SubPop that allowed the grunge bands to get their music out there, but as I said, those grunge bands were not primarily influenced by an indie scene. Their main influences were well established acts.

Do Catherine Wheel and Swervedriver fit this topic? I love both, and I think both were bigger in the US than the UK.

At least I know Swervedriver, as mentioned above. ;) They'll fit right there.
-
Catherine Wheel were, indeed, excellent and I believe bigger in the US than the UK. Ferment was the height of their trendiness in the UK, but Happy Days and Adam And Eve are much better albums... Chrome is also worth a listen...

Ferment, Chrome and Adam and Eve are my favorites. Happy Days is a bit to heavy metalish for me, but there are some great songs on it. Wishville (their last one) gets knocked around a lot, but I think it's pretty great too.
Mezcal Head and Raise from Swervedriver is their big albums, but they put out four solid albums before calling it a day. Adam Franklin went on to make some fines albums on his own, but seem more hippy trippy compared to SD. They have been saying for 3 or 4 years that they are working on a comeback album. We'll see.
-
Happy Days is a bit to heavy metalish for me, but there are some great songs on it.
I think some of the veterans of indie and grunge have become bit more metallish later on. Well not always, but if you listen to Smashing Pumpkins' newer albums; f.e Machina.
PS. Anyone remember the Popsicle?

Gene.

Gene.
Gene... another band I forgot about! Damn my failing memory!
All too often knocked as a Smiths rip-off, but much more than that IMO...
Loved 'Olympian', superb album.. 'Drawn To The Deep End' was also very good... dipped in and out after that but was never disappointed... I need a big old re-listen, don't I?
Hre's the title track from Olympian'... love this one...

Gene were a band I so many times,some of my other faves were Suede,Idlewild,The Auters (much better live,dont think the cd's did them justice)
-
I fprgot about Mansun ,Marion,Rialto and Shed 7.
-
I think that Popsicle became Brainpool later on. They seemed to be Swedish bands so if any of you Swedes (Magnus, Mia, Fransson, Ava Enturin etc.) over there can correct am I right, please do so. I saw the Brainpool once and think they became more softier and changed their style in start of 2000's. (I admit I was more into the Popsicle.)
There's an old Swedish band called the Nomads too (started in early 80's?), and guess they got more audience with the Indie wave in early 90's. Nomads were considered as some kind of a legendary band.

Spiritualized, anyone? here's the first three tracks from 'Lazer-guided memories'...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NVIEwzhoug
OK, funny story... I bought this album back in the early 90's without ever hearing anything by them thanks to awesome reviews... a big double vinyl album with nice artwork... and I loved the sound of them, the deep slow vocals and the sludge-y guitar sounds... it was like nothing I'd ever heard. Truly innovative music. Bloody loved it.
It was a couple of months before I figured out that those two vinyl records should have been played at 45rpm (single speed), not 33rpm (album speed). ::)
True story. And, yes, I am an idiot...
-

That's funny. Something similar happened to me when I bought the Naked City album "Torture Garden" 20 years ago.
Like that Spiritualized stuff. This goes straight to the heart of our long gone and lovely indie music. :)
-
Spiritualized, anyone?
Oh yeah baby, how did I ever forget about this lot and in particular Lazer Guided Melodies??? The nights I spent late at night in bed listening on headphones absolutely stoned out my brain, coloured bulbs in all the lights, your usual young dopehead shite décor all over the place. Happy Daze :D
Got that link playing nice and loud right now - cheers Ray, I feel young again ;D ;D

Oh, love this one. 'Monsters And Angels' by Voice Of The Beehive... I might have this wrong, but the drummer in this band was the guy from Madness?

I remember seeing a band called Blind Melon at Glastonbury in 1994 and they were brilliant. Had not heard of them before seeing them and they were excellent live. The lead singer went on to OD and join the 27 club I think.

I remember seeing a band called Blind Melon at Glastonbury in 1994 and they were brilliant.
Oooh, I saw Blind Melon at a festival here in New York and they were damn awful. The lead singer, Shannon something, was a real pretentious twit. He'd try things like performing in a ladies evening gown to show he was "an artist," but all he was was a troubled junkie.
They did leave a mark, though. Their video with the little girl bumble bee is pretty much iconic over here in America. A car commercial or something recently took the theme from that video. The little girl bumble bee is very recognized over here as a symbol for the outsider looking to simply be who they are. Give Blind Melon credit for that.

I think the lead singer for Blind Melon killed himself. Could be wrong though.

I can remember many of them. Maybe the Curve popped up as a name in the list that really fits there. I liked them much more than some of the better known artists in the list. Many good names there but also found names like The Germs and Minor Threat as bands that are rather punk and hc from early eighties, late 70's. But wow, it was interesting to scroll the list. Just thinking how many of the great names mentioned here in this thread were missing!
Actually just few days ago while I was driving to work early in the morning I realised I could make a refreshing change to boring driving hours by listening to odd albums from bands via YouTube that I never owned but always thought I should had purchased long time ago:
So I explored some great bands that'll bring always good vibes and memories: Teenage Fun Club, The Dambuilders (and well yeah occasional early Rainbow albums too).
Here's some great stuff from the Dambuilders:
Shrine (https://youtu.be/fFcGRQROIt0)
Teenage Loser Anthem (https://youtu.be/uc1gzruGfx4)
Slo-Mo Kikaida (https://youtu.be/pB_f0IrNJTs)

There was no indie scene in America that led to the grunge explosion. Those bands may have indie-cred, but their influences were BIG stadium rock.
My understanding (obviously second hand from the UK music press) was that there was a reasonable size US alternative indie scene pre grunge with labels like SST and the hardcore bands like Black Flag, Minor Threat & the Germs which then mutated into stuff like Sonic Youth, Husker Du, Dinosaur Jnr , Soul Asylum etc etc. (just watch any of Dave Grohls many documentaries) Any US band will have stadium rock influences as that what most teenagers then grew up with - but the punkier/rockier indie bands definitely paved the way for grunge.
Though the strange thing was that- due to the UK weekly music press - it was probably better covered here than in the states.

Neil Young is generally accepted as the father of grunge. See the following article that randomly popped up as I googled: 'Neil Young Father Grunge':
http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/flashback-neil-young-emerges-as-the-godfather-of-grunge-in-1991-20150303
FYI - Weld is by far the best live album I have ever heard. Go get it. Now.
-
The Auters were a great live band,Luke Haines is a rather "interesting" character.Gene,Suede,were my faves,Mansun and Marion were worth a listen.
-
Jez, ever read Luke Haines book about the 90's music scene, 'Bad Vibes'? Well worth a read.
Blaggers ITA were one of my faves from those days, but seeing as the singer once battered a music journalist (not that I'm excusing it) I can see why they didn't make that article...

bought "bleach!" by nirvana on import cause we'd heard love buzz and thought it was awesome. loved mudhoney and big black. uk-wise pop will eat itself were awesome as were carter the unstoppable sex-machine. loved the sugarcubes and all those bands with cute blonde singers like the primitives. daisy chainsaw were even cuter and danielle dax is a goddess.
wow -floods of nostalgia! gonna have to dig some of that shit out and listen to it now.
-
Lotta love for Carter from various NMA folks... saw Justin at a Carter gig in Leeds a few years back!
Sorry to be Captain Pedantic, but Danielle Dax wasn't in Daisy Chainsaw, that was Katie Jane Garside... I can understand the mix-up though!
-
Many great bands mentioned there. Have to say, Daisy Chainsaw always reminded me about the Cranes! I used to think the singer was same in both bands but I see she's not.
Here's a Cranes song from 1994; Come This Far (https://youtu.be/xAAb8Kn-E2s), from the album "Loved".

Eeh, anyone remember Ray Cokes and the Most Wanted?

saw Carter USM live at reading festival late 80's/early 90's and live they reminded me very much of NMA, albeit with a lighter poppier sound.
the danielle dax/daisy chainsaw statement(s) was meant to be read seperately as "[the girl in] daisy chainsaw was even cuter; and danielle dax is a goddess." i know danielle dax wasnt in daisy chainsaw, sorry.
