Sep 7, 2008 - my fav band ever, they were my daft uni band 20 years ago, long hair and uvs man.....fuck what happened?

librarianeric Says:

Sep 7, 2008 - This was when they were an up-and-coming 4AD band. They got knocked for being derivative of Jesus and Mary Chain, but they were the best American shoegazers ever. Can't believe this is almost 20 years old! Thanks for posting!

Sep 7, 2008 - This one is his best ever- and nevermind JAMC influences, it takes brains and talent to come up with something this f'n good. I know one things for sure- he had both in spades. :) S

Sep 7, 2008 - Christ, I remember this from Transmission on Channel 4; broadcast at something like 4am back in 1990-ish?

Slycheetah Says:

Sep 7, 2008 - Hahah wow me too!!!! I think it was broadcast on Tuesday nights :-). Used to go to an indie club and then stagger back to watch Transmission...was definitely a Tuesday!

Sep 7, 2008 - Brilliant tune. I was in the V&A musuem today and they have this album on display as a classic of its time (mainly for the artwork i think). Strange to think it's now a musuem piece! 4AD were a fantastic label.

orsonkarte Says:

Sep 7, 2008 - A true classic, i have the album gathering dust, willing to sell to a good home ( i dont have a turntable any more) A PITY, but life i guess

thesoup Says:

Sep 7, 2008 - This is such an awesome song. This band should've been a lot bigger than they were.

gybbyr6 Says:

wzaxx Says:

Sep 7, 2008 - I went to see bob mould play and UVS was opening up for him and thought liked them better, And came away a fan. I feel really lucky to have seen them.

terryrhf Says:

Sep 7, 2008 - This band were amazing, fuck knows why they never made it big!!!!!

Spicercdc Says:

Sep 7, 2008 - Just dusted off my original twelve inch of this. Can't believe how long ago this came out. Really showing my age (and good taste!) What a track!

supergrizz Says:

Sep 7, 2008 - Yes, this song was on the debut UVS album... the one with the toothbrush artwork.

saliarmy Says:

Sep 7, 2008 - they didnt make it if u remember because the mondays and the roses swept everything else aside. an in-form pixies,rem and the brilliant house of love all sat on the sidelines. it was nothing short of a travesty.

bgrrrlie Says:

michaelfingard Says:

cordedpoodle Says:

Sep 7, 2008 - Kurt was accepted into Berklee at 16yrs old. All the albums are good. All the singles are good.
