It wasn't even raining so I don't know what happened. I got a package of records I was waiting for yesterday and they arrived thoroughly soaked, like someone had just fished them out of False Creek. Phantom Pregnancies 'Generate Sparks' (from Assassination City Lp, 1995) Far beyond lo-fi, their releases were all recorded on a boombox and inserts give advice for maximizing this. Still somewhat mysterious, Phantom Pregnancies were supposedly made up from members of Huggy Bear and Wat Tyler, and according to legend, only played uninvited shows which they crashed. Huggy Bear 'Fuck Yr Heart' (from Weaponry Listens To Love Lp, 1994) Huggy Bear 'Immature Adolescence' (from Weaponry Listens To Love Lp, 1994) Huggy Bear 'Dissthentic Penetration' (from Don't Die 7', 1993) They began as a fairly simple, vaguely garage-oriented indie band and morphed into a unique, tense and jagged sound that foreshadowed the rhythmic, angular rock stuff that happened in the early 00s. Yummy Fur 'Cheloveck' (from Night Club Lp, 1996)ДЄll things considered, Huggy Bear are my favorite band from that era and one of the best bands of the 90s in my opinion. Unanimously ignored during their time, Yummy Fur now have the distinction of being the band that Alex Kapranos and Paul Thomson of Franz Ferdinand were in during the 90s. Speaking of Slampt.ДЎ994 saw release of the Elastic Jet Mission compilation, featuring 15 bands from the region. Layla from Skinned Teen later went on to form Petty Crime, who released an excellent EP on Slampt that was more or less the impetus for this post. Skinned Teen 'Pillowcase Kisser' (from Bazooka Smooth split Lp with Raooul, 1994) Skinned Teen 'Ex-Boyfriend Beat' (from Bazooka Smooth split Lp with Raooul, 1994) Their first single ( Karate Hairdresser) and early demo recordings were mainly impromptu and accapella, but later releases did include standard instrumentation. Inspired by Bikini Kill and locals Huggy Bear, and recalling the naive whimsy of The Shaggs (whether they knew it or not), Skinned Teen formed in London when the three members were supposedly 13-14 years old. While the underground indie scene and, particularly relevant here, riot grrl, were jumping off in the US, similar things were brewing in the UK in the early 90s.
