You're not wrong. The majors sucked all those the bands dry of ther true poison but still made a fortune in the process. Sad but true.
Nutz were kind of the immediate predecessors of all that. Saw them a couple of times supporting the Sabs on the Technical Ecstasy tour and again on their own at The Marquee and they were potentially the most interesting of the lot. Not to be though.
