Eugenius - Blue above the rooftops

Excellent Scottish band, previously known as Captain America.

I saw them a couple of timed around 1994 or 95.

Everybody for themselves.

Cracking Vid.

Reminds me of my Grandad when i used to visit my Grandparents. He used to play drums, he was never out of a suit and his trilby down at the local Miners Welfare Club, afternoon of evening he would be dressed smart. I was only a kid but i remember you couldn't get a seat in the big room and it would spill into the other big room. Atmosphere was everything... Its gone and i'm not sure why. There's go to be more to it than just blaming Thatcher.... Great exciting times for me visiting a big club with so many people.

I like their noise (I would, I play that type of music myself nowadays)! They remind me of Ash...

They were really good, they didn't stick around for long though.

Only made two albums sadly.

Here's another one of theirs.

Sometimes a song just catches the mood no matter how popular it was.

True story.

Many years ago I was in my local pub. Rosetta Bar Belfast
They always had metal bands playing upstairs at the time. Late 1980s 1989 I reckon.
The barman suggested we check out the one playing that night. It was a Thursday night which was always quiet.
I wasn't in the mood for forking out £2.50 but the pub was pretty dead so me and my mate Shaun went upstairs.

Thunder.

Never heard of them.
There was about 12 people in there and it was freezing
Their set was what we now know as Back Street Symphony. That guitar intro to Shes so fine and I was hooked They were awesome.

Even though they were performing to one man and his dog they just went for it and so did we. ( fueled by a slap of pints of course)

During the set break I recall telling the bar manager that he just had to get them back. He rebooked them that night.

Four months later and with a TOTP appearance behind them they played to a well over capacity Rosetta again. 3-400 in there it was mayhem. I was lucky to get in.

Then they toured with Heart and played the Kings Hall 7000 crowd.

What a band

Sebadoh - Skull

[Muppet the Cat]

I suspect of limited appeal, but I love this track

and, I haven't come across/listened to any other Russian bands (they're from St. Petersburg)

[Leeds1000]

What a track that was MTC. Could Putin be the last straw in the in the way we organize society. We can all see it coming the China effect, Putin could well be the last stand of the old socialism. Welcome to pleasuredome.....

Ain't no pleasing you

Saw them a couple of times supporting Nirvana when they were Captain America. Good band.

Eugene pops up on a great Scottish indie documentary which is (I think) on Amazon Prime. Mostly about his time in The Vaselines.
