      Backyard Babies...can't believe I've never checked this band out before!!!

      One of my favourites, circa 1998.


      Between them and Imperial State Electric it's been a bumper week of discovery for me.

    • They sound pretty decent too from what I heard briefly the other night.

      Yeah...it's pretty close to later Hellacopters but the song writing seems tighter and catchier...strong hints of early Kiss with a nod to the Beatles and garage rock.

    • Oh yeah Imperial state electric are cool, Nick from the Hellacopters and one of the Datsuns are in that band I believe. Hellacopters are still right up with my favourite bands if not the favourite

      It was you who got me into The Hellacopters Jack...kind of. You sent me Head Off, which I didn't think was that good but when I found out it was a covers album I checked out their other stuff and flipped out over it. And yeah, one of The Datsuns is in Imperial State Electric, the bassist. It kind of makes me want to check them out further as well.

      Well said Mazz, huge Datsuns fan here too. They were one of the first bands I ever saw live and I'd happily still pay to see them again. The first album is still the most vital one but the really matured into writing some great stuff and dropped back out of their Top of the Pops early stage.

      I've been listening to Big Business - Head for the Shallow, an awful lot this week. Amazing rhythms on that.

      The absolute top bollocks. So glad to have a musician who can still produce anything near the quality of his prime. Can't wait to see the Horse this June.
