Also qualifies as an album i bought based on the one song, and wasn't that keen on the rest.

Suede are fab, surely.

But not that obscure I wouldn't have thought?

Or maybe I'm just old...

May I nominate a couple:

Cattle and Cane by The Go-Betweens

Stolen Property by The Triffids

Doppelgänger by The Luddites

...all Peel show listens from the 80s. Sigh....

Tranquillizer by Geneva

They were an indie band in the late 90's, did 2 albums and were never particularly popular. Loved them though! Smile

am reviving this thread so I can mention a couple

Things Fall Apart by Cristina. Anne Nightingale used to play it back in '83 or so all the time!

The The - Uncertain Smile. 'Tis brillig.

Empty Bottles - Ben Watt (the other half of EBTG). His 'North Marine Drive' album is up there in the stratospher IMO.

De-Luxe by Lush. Still one of my fave bands ever.

Anyone else?

donnie · 12/05/2012 16:12

Sinister I feel the way you do about 'Pantomime Horse' by Suede xxxx

IAmSherlocked · 12/05/2012 16:16

The Only Living Boy in New Cross - Carter USM.

StarMeKitten · 13/05/2012 15:28

Dry the rain by Beta Band

Llanbobl · 15/05/2012 20:26

Carter USM are fab, but to (mis) quote RetiredGoth2 , surely not that obscure Smile

Can I throw Alternative TV "Another Coke" into the mix or Pere Ubu "Non Alignment Pact"

mewkins · 17/05/2012 23:02

For Nancy- Pete Yorn
Short skirt/long acket - Cake
I'm so sick of goodbyes- sparklehorse

IAmSherlocked · 18/05/2012 17:08

Llanbobl - you'd think, but when a colleague at work asked for everyone's favourite songs for some kind of work do quiz, that very song was rejected by him when I volunteered it as 'no-one would have heard of it'.

So I think that qualifies it absolutely for this thread
