I own Big In Japan by these as I made a mistake and thought it was by Big In Japan. It is easily the worst record I own.

There was a lot of shite out around that time.

[SasaS]

DAF.
What happened to Pretenders, they were neither American nor British?
Sugarcubes, to annoy Byork haters.

Tinariwen, not a huge fan myself, but they were all the rage some 10 years ago. To have more diversity.

Yeah, fantastic live band. Twice for me and it needs to be done again. 

 

There's a local band here that does gypsy punk and throws a few covers in. Good version of Start Wearing Purple. Singer even has a big daft muzzy.

I know that now, I’ve always based it around the term ‘Krautrock’, never listened to it and dismissed it as pointless electronic dirge, but I genuinely love what I’m hearing of Can.

 

Where do I start for the deep dive? 

Future Days is my favourite album of theirs but anything from Monster Movie to Landed is gold.

[Mook]

Since King Crimson were disgracefully omitted from the UK tournament, I nominate the Adrian Belew line up for this one.
