They definitely were pre-"You Made Me Realise", and then became something totally different. To me, an anorak band is summat like The Pastels and The Shop Assistants (who I love). What MBV turned into went way above that, even if they still used the same 60's songwriting template. For me, an anorak band is one who sticks closely to a pre-defined formula without deviation, and MBV totally broke away from that with the "YMMR" EP. Amazing to think that they did that in such a short space of time after "Strawberry Wine" and "Ecstasy".
