Sinister: Moose

[Martin Horsfield]

Sorry, I posted this the wrong way first time.

Hats off to Keith McL for giving a mention to Moose, a truly underated
band. Were they really on Virgin in America? 
I saw them live at the Clapham Grand a few years back and though they
were utterly dire (apart from the artful movies projected behind them),
I perservered and now love them almost as much as B&S. 
Among their many claims to fame is making one of the only listenable
records that Delores Cranberry has ever squawked on (though with typical
hauteur, la O'Rierdan blames supporting Moose for The Cranberries'
initial pigeonholing with the shoegazing 'scene' which set their
crossover back by, ooohh, months).
'This River Never Will Run Dry', 'So Much Love So Little Time', a lush
version of 'Everybody's Talking'; go search a bargain bin for their
work. Keith, are there any sites dedicated to Russel and co?
Next post: Green On Red, forgotten men of the paisley underground...
