Haven't delved into this scene in a while. Have all my Sounds, MM, NyRockers, Nme, Trouser Press, etc of the time.
I see there is a 3 volume Neat records set.
Also 3cd Lightning To All Nations
And Lars Ulrich 2cd set
Castle/Sanctuary has done an excellent job collecting/releasing complete band's works.
It is amazing how many of these bands there were, definitely a traditional 'rockstar' dream in reaction to punk. Yet such bad luck befell so many. Never getting out of gate after first single or album, some not having the material. Some that did have the material just could not keep it together.
All in all some great tunes, and great playing.
Any recommendations?
