: Fake Britpop : cruster October 10, 2003, 12:34:27 PM Snizz - why didn't you tell me Catatonia ruled? I gotta assume that these guys are at least on your radar since you're the official Britpop rep here. I wandered across "Equally Cursed and Blessed" and it freakin' rules. Cerys Matthews can wail to the point of being hot.

I think most of us checked them out when we ran this review years ago. I know I did. : Fake Britpop : cruster October 10, 2003, 04:57:22 PM Clearly, I did not.
: Fake Britpop : Nada Overlord October 11, 2003, 01:06:45 PM better late than never, crustybutt.
: Fake Britpop : The Snizz October 14, 2003, 10:30:27 AM Sorry Crustybutt. I don't share the same opinion. I found them most boring. Keep in mind however I rarely like a chick fronted band.
Cerys is hot though. I believe Catatonia did release a greatest hits album awhile back though. Cerys also released a solo album. So there's plenty more stuff for you to check out. : Well. : cruster October 14, 2003, 06:09:06 PM a) I am a sucker for female-fronted bands.
b) Their albums seem inconsistent, but there are some truly, truly excellent songs, enough on each one to make them worth picking up. I think that's my problem with a lot of Britpop - too much filler, "in general." But...I found all the Catatonia discs dirt cheap on half.com and amazon.com, so...I think I'm out $12 for at least a disc's worth of really good tracks. |
