Back in Sept r79 tUe two Stoves began looking around for otbers to form a band, eventually met up with Paul in Jan r80 & had the fu1l band line-up by late Feb. They then speut two months rehearsing & rrriting songs at Ran Studios in their lrome-town of Leeds before nakiag their public debut at The Marquis of Granb3r on 26th May (on a doubLe bill with Bradfordr s Ulterior ltotives - another name-check, heht hehl ) They played Boston Spa on 31st May & have July gigs at Seacroft Hotel & The Royal Park in Leeds, with a couple of dates' lined, up back at The Marquis in late srflmerr On Z8th June, the band is booked into Ram to record a tlemo tape (rith Dave l{hiitaker of the band Music For Plcasure coming in ae prod.ucer). When I intervieweil them, the band volunteered. a bunch of personal rock historieg. Here are the edited highlights... Steve l{ardle was previouely in a band called The lttess. Nick Hay lived d.or+n in Croydon until ,78 & was in iiffi5Ei of Londonr s ear\r punk bande with guch exotic names as IIaiLL (which Nick describls as -BaLi_C & &e tlasturbators t lrrrse The Rubberg + Rarnpant
Sypbill,.le... Irkcronl sometimes I worry about todaytsl youth - when f was a lad we never used words like rampant. Andy says! nf sas in a band calletl Eio-Feod!.ack & we played just onc gig for which we only fraa Fiinutesr rehearsal . fhere were three of us - no bass-player, but no-one noticed thatt" Paul Mlrror has been involved in music for about 6r year6 & has, alone over 2O0 gigs. lhe Mtrrors was the flrst band for rhich he rrrote all the songs & thei.r line-up also included Ilave i{hj.ttaker (atrreatty mentioned above). St.ne Gregg once played guitar in a playl but this is his first band & the gig at The l,larquis was hls first ever. AIso at the interview Has a frlend of the band. called Merrick who has the &istinction of having been the bandfs mana€er for about tno hours (Ue triea & failed to get them a gig at Wigr s Hine Bqr so they sacked him). He once had pia.no lessons frorn a
neighbour. The group write all their own songs - usually starting with a get of lyrics by Paul. 'rl$r lyrics are mostly sexual politios plus a couple of topical songs (fite rOilr which
is about the {yatolfah) but I avotil taking aqr specifically political stances.[ Ofteu Paul also comes up rith tho rough. outline of a melody. The band as a nhole then hammer out the cornplete song that wonrt just be a straightforrard. basic pop aong - 'rWe like to use a mixture of rhythrus & melodj.es so that the songr s a bit rnore compJ,er than just verse/chorus/ veree/chorus.tr'Paul says that the eventual aim 1s to develop a ner. approach to the staadard 2-guitar line-up.

Ir{irsiar Theyrve been compared with Roxy lilusicr Talking Heads XlC & Caotain &efheart, seei.ng themseives as one of the Efras €rFg-ilftTror the new-wave era with a d.ifferent kj"nd of pop/rock that is catch & accessible without being instantly dleposable. In the early daysl the band worked. at rnixing nelr-lraver reggae & iazzlfvrtk influences - a.n uneasy blend at first, but one that they now feel gives the group its own distinctive style. Liver they do a set of 18 numbers drawn from a constantly evol-ving repertoire which has included. over !O original regularly-performed Bongso They attach a lot of irnportance to the lyrics which they feet are better than most - a claim backed up try a report in the local press whioh summed up the bandts strengths asr tgood catchy choruses, a really tight rhythm section, & excellent lyricst. Song titles include: rSa,fe & Soundr, rFatal Attractlont, tPop Gigolorl rA11 Your Favouri.te Flavoursr , rllinutes llo Gof , tEgo Voyeurr , tI]cg The Mindr & rAnother Jungler. Baclcrowrdr The nrrcleus of the band met at Huddersfield Polytechnig (where two were students & one a lecturer in psytirotory/eociolory) a nave been toge+,her for two years gaining experience t6t Playing in pubsr clubs & colleges throughout the regi.on.

The group: Hugh Gubbin (voc)r.Huqh Morley (gtt)'
Gv& Chris
JacksonTkbds), Mick Bunnase (bs), Graham Summers (ams). (t'tict< & Graham are both also irr Deep l'reeze Mice). The ba.nd formed as'['he Stati<:s. i.n Feb tl'J & have pl-a;;edt mostly around Leeds, about twenty eigs in a.ll - supcorti.ng bands such as ltla/az:-ne, Mekons, ''\gony Columnr icreamst
Crisisr Oon}gglgr etc. In Dec t79 they recorded two tracks at n:.c nac Stuaio in Leeds (see tape review in HCR6) which rere intended for release as a single but the;r Cidnft have the money to release i.t & "anywailr we felt after the reoording session was over that the tracks were a bit flat & lifeless but thatfe probably because it was our first time in a studio. I think that we did the best we coulil & any other band would have done about the same under the circumstancee. It was something we had to go througbr so it wasnrt wasted.rt One of the main probleme that the ba^nd feel they axe curently facing is one that they have i"n oommon with numerous local outfits. 'rUnless yourre doing a support at The l"an Club or The University, itfs hard to draw more f]narl 10/60 people to a gig. So itrs a priority for us to get out of Leeds for gigs if we nant to reach a reasonable number of people. ft was good supporting l{agazine as they drew the kind of audience that seens to li.ke us - but we couldnrt draw them in such numbers in our own right. Itfs a drag that those gigs are few & far between. Therels a club recently openecl in Lonclon - the Moonligbt - thatrs intended as a ghowcase of bands from The Provinces, eo maybe wer11 get a gig there. !{erd like to play Shoffield, Manchester; etc. but a lot of olubs seem to be cloeing dorrn & the others arenrt keen to risk booking bands like us whorve not had extensive media coverage. Also, tl're fact that our nusict g slightly different from standard rock & pop meann that g'igs are harder to find. Most pcople who go to gigs donrt like to be offered anythlng that theyrve not hearil before.'l f asked them about plans for uiny}... 'rWe feel that wo now have a more clear\r-defined mrsical direction as a Soupr but werve no money to do it ourgelve$o Thererg a chance, though, that we might get one side of €Jt EoP. otr Mole Elnbalrning Records (rith Deep Freeze l{ice on the flip)r though thatrs still very much in the air at the monent." Anyr other hassleg...? 'r14s need ma^nagement & a phone itrs a real problem not being on the phone at a]1," The intervier ended here, but a lptter arrived two days later:"Dea,r Nick, after the interview we suddenly realised that we hadnrt said much about the music. l.lost ba^nds interviewed i,n the 'yJ.C.R.. seem to treat the music as incidental & we donrt wa.nt to do that. The main points are these. },le like to vary our am€ug€ments & avoid the obvious & contrived. One aspect of this ls the absence of conventional solos (tWiiitu Sound' is an exception). Creating atmosphere & feeling is more important tiran displays of technical skiIl. It is important to be open to new ideas, & difficult to build up the confidenco to use them. i'ihen bands start roruying abolrt showing influencesr or whether audiences li.ke their music, is where we believe most of them go wrong, though sometimes itrs hard to avoid. Likewi.se; we want people to have to think about the lyricsr aa opposed to being spoon-fed rrith clich'eg. Malcing things easy can make thlngs worse. Obviously therets too much here for a r{.C.R. articlot but we hope you ca.n use some of it. (Wrong - ed. ) I'Je will be sending some photos in the near future. Cheersr Oraham Summers. P.S. How about a regular letters page in lil.C.R.? More feedback, we s{r.rl Finally, the nalae-.h*gu to 'fhe Subliminal Cut wag partly because the bandr s very different nowadays & so they felt a change of name was needed. Also, 'l'he statios was rather non-,lescript & anYw4Y there r"rere several other bands with the same or si.milar names (e.r. 'fhe Statistics, The .icstatics, etc. ). Yo',r can contact- the goup at 26 Ashville Avenue, Leeds 6o whj,ch is the i.d:lress of i'ioIe dmbalming ltecords as welI.

fhis page was supposed to carry a large feature on a new Bradford band called l{qqven Sevgleen. However, when I came to type this ufu-i coulErTTind the text of the interview or the photos that lrd filed ar"ray. Sol with profuse apologies to them (a tne promise that when I find them Irll run the feature as originally intehaea), herefs a report on the group. For several weeks, Ird been getting rphone calls from some guy With a new band. He didnr t want to mee{ up with rne j.n a pub, but was insistent that I take time out to come d-ormr to their rrehearsal studiosr. f rd been putting it off because I lcnew i.tf d take up some time & Ir d. a million other jobs to get done. I{ot^rever, I eventually agreed to meet them i.n The Churchil}, Bradford where my olrn band end up after rehearsals. Rehearsal over, Ird just got in a g,a:r'e of pool went they anived. Five minutes drive in their tiny van & Irm bei-ng lead j.nto an o1d warehouse, expecting to find. a couple of tatty amps & a tape recorder stashed away i.n some cold baclsoomo i.lrongl Heaven Seventeen Ne 5 guys in late teenage who hold down dayjobs but have rrirtually given up a social life to become a rock band-. Each of them (plus the two roadie/ engineers) has sunk {,1'OOO of savings into buying gear. No rich relations, itrs all their own money. ,.Iith the result that they went to J.S.O. in Bi.ngley & bought over f,?rOO0-worth of gear. In a rented. warehouse, theytve set up one room for rehearsingl a second. - adjoini.ng the rehearsa] room - for mixing & a third, a sizeable ha11, is being done out so that they can. use it to do showcase performances to inrrj.ted friends of the band. l.then the conversion workr s finishedy they intend to have the rehearsal roomr/mixing room op"ru,ti.ru as a proper studi.o to serve the band. A11 this, & theyrve not yet done a grgl The bandr s members have only been playing thei.r instruments seriously for the past year or so &, as f listened to them running through a short selection of their original- songs, there were a few rough edgeel though the numbers are good, wi-th a couple that I particularly liked. With the gear to give them an outstanding stage sound plus a we}l-rehearsed set (tney work most ni.ghts for several trours) of promising sel-f-written th"y "otrg", are a band that deserve to do wel1.

cal-led riftr-irlwind. If the genre takes off r then Bradfordf s in the local lf.M.C.rsl atre RockabillT il.ebs. Their F consists of d tracks - 2 their own, 2 covers of standards. The A-si.de offers thei-r own IBoot i{i}l Soogief which has just the right guitar pound & is fronted by a good vocalist. Being a blend of country & rockrnrroll, i.trs easy to see why this cuts it in the clubs. 2nd tra-ck is a f airly good version of f Aintt l{othinf Shaki.ntr. Turn over for tOne r'lay Tbainr which has an irresj-stable steam-train rhythm coupled. to a catchy walking basstine. Neat guitar break too. Finally, therers a good version of rAlabama Shaker. Irm a mug for thj.s sort of stuff - Iove it. Irm told theyrve another release in the pipeline - will look out for it with interest. I(ILLdRi,ldTrnS - r'Iwisted. Wheel' ./, '5X225' (Gem, '80). Back in the mid-sixtiesl The Twi.sted i^lheel was the I'lanchester club to which mods travelled miles for allnighters. The Huddersfield superstars come u-c with a good mod song here thatrs got a Geno'rlashington guitar sound + the party feel thatrs on 9ecret 4ryairrs singles. Slightly bland & derivative, but a-Fii?:Jlipror aII that. It would have probably got into the lower reaches of the nationrs charts if itrd had more airplay. B-siders also good - maybe even better than the A. I sure you a1l lcrow tha.t an 5X225 is a Lamb:'etta scooter (t think 22J refers to the number of mirrors &/or pend.a^nts it'l1 take). THn mNKE'fS - rWhat I Wantr c/w rFour Lettersf (Rhesus Record-sr'79). fni.s is a powerful piece of d.ri.rrj.ng new wave pop that got a lot of airplay & was plugged" heawiLy in the music presso It shouldtve made them popsta.f,s..o brlt it d.idnrt. Rough justioe, itrs a bloody good single &, rereleased on a major label' could still d.o it for them. As thatr s unlikely, r.rnless you can pick this up in the second-hand racksr Jou'I1 just have to take rqy word for it. B-sider s nearer to raw punk - a bit heavy-handed., but with an interesting mixture of vocals. (Lightning r?B). THE JERKS - tCoolr c/w f Cruisinr (qain)t The second single from the band. that John Keenan (manager of The Fan Club, Leeds) described as Leedst first punk band. A-side is odd.. Neither one thing nor the other, i.t mixes punk vocals with melodic keyboards, sta,ndard roclc guitar & basis drumrninge Itts alright, but no big dea}. B-si.cle is a bit ordinary except for the keyboards. Oh, & I like the audi ence. use of the back-up vocals on the last couple of lines. JOHN POTTiIRTS CLAY - E.p. (figtrthawk Records rl!).
