French Disko completely rocks.
I wish they still sounded like that; that song kicked major ass in a live setting.

I went for Huggy Bear but a lot of the stuff on it is just really good.I was a bit of a Madder Rose fan at the time.

Glice · 10.21.2006, 11:59 AM

No-one ever says that Chumbawumba use to be good. They were. I was a bit too young at the time, but thanks to some anarcho-punks I now know the truth. Oh yes.

Pookie · 10.21.2006, 12:07 PM

The truth: Chumbawamba were NEVER good. And I wasn't too young at the time.

Just for the record.

porkmarras · 10.21.2006, 12:10 PM

NO NO NO.Chumbawamba were bad at the time and people who loved Wonder Stuff at the time are still paying the price for such statements.

porkmarras · 10.21.2006, 12:10 PM

Anarcho-punk is the worst thing to ever grace humanity's shores.

Everyneurotic · 10.21.2006, 12:20 PM

...after oi!

Everyneurotic · 10.21.2006, 12:20 PM

PAULYBEE2656 · 10.21.2006, 12:41 PM

chumbawumbabumbacumbashumba were never any use and credit to the nation were really poor as well... but i realise their hugeness if you are english.

Hip Priest · 10.21.2006, 12:56 PM

1993 was the year The Infotainment Scan came out and yet none of it got into the top ten, which is a shame.

Pookie · 08.01.2008, 01:05 PM

Glice · 08.01.2008, 01:09 PM

Still sticking to my Chumbawumba statement. Ra.

Pookie · 08.01.2008, 01:11 PM

And I mine. Ra

I didn't vote in the original round of these threads. So I'm correcting that now. I vote Huggy Bear.

stu666 · 08.01.2008, 01:24 PM

Huggy Bear defo 1st choice for me, but the others are to close to choose from apart from Chumbawumba which i never really cared for much

this was the year when i really started getting into a lot of music courtesy of the great John Peel

Glice · 08.01.2008, 01:31 PM

Stu - you live in his ex-hometown, right?

right, i am friends with his son, Tom and went to school with him, i got to go see alot of good bands thanks to John, my favourite memory was being on stage at reading 93 when Babes in Toyland where playing i even got to say hello to Kat Bjelland backstage, i was only 13 at the time but will never forget this

Glice · 08.01.2008, 02:12 PM

'Mazing. Bit of a vulgar question, sorry - how did Tom cope with not just losing his old man but having to hear about it absolutely everywhere? I often wonder about these people, especially if the person isn't quite famous enough to have children who are instantly famous (children of royalty and the like).
