commonpeople mentioned awful post-Brit pop band Bennett (I seem to remember that I vaguely knew their manager) and I thought of other late 90s bands that were just floating around there without really fitting into a 'scene', or indeed being remembered at all. Instead of singing about Iceland, Bawl wrote about Safeways. I love the twangy chords and the violins.
Scouse folk-hippies Ooberman wrote this dreamy, fey shanty.
Does anyone else remember either of these bands? I asked this of Facebook, but it was during the dead hour of between 5 and 6.
