Drawing for a college project. It's a segment on music for my book of culture called Fecal Depot. More specifically, the people and archetypes I met at gigs in my teens.

EDIT *A couple of mates asked for what the posters on the wall represented so in no order it's:*

Kingmaker : Band from hull who did 2 mints albums and 2 lacklustre ones. Tracks worth hearing are Eat Yourself whole and Twn Years Asleep

Cud : Indie band from Leeds who were so loved by Phillip Bond, Jamie Hewlett and Glynn Dillon that they drew the band logo everywhere they could (including the set of Grange Hill). Recently reformed and re-releasing the back catalogue.

Basskniv3s : Peter Vuckovich's band after 3CR. Imagine the Wildhearts with less snarl and more swearing and you're on the money. Their e.p Come On You Motherfuckers sums it all up. Bez Straha.

Flame symbol : Audioslave logo. Audioslave split up recently so Chris Cornell could do more solo stuff and the rest could reform RATM.

Smiley and bones: The Wildhearts insignia. Britains answer to in your face daft metal with tracks like Caffiene Bomb, Bi Polar Baby and And The Bullshit Goes On.

Senseless Things : Early 90's Twickenham Pop Punk. Jamie Hewlett loved them and they gave Wiz Brown the horn. Of the four members one left to drum for Gorillaz, another plays for Muses live set, the other is now a morris dancer and the singer is playing in Mark Keds: L.A.B in north London.

"Kid's Don't Follow" : Name of an early album and track by US punk band The Replacements. Came out in 83 and no where near as good as the later album Let It Be. Best track is Go.

23 : The Magic Number

Terror TV : Reference to 90's pop metal act Terrorvision. Bradfords 'ardest band with songs like Celebrity Death List and Alice, What's The Matter?. The greatest hits and last live show CD are all HMV usually stock but you want to hunt for How To Make Friends And Influence People or Regular Urban Survivors instead.

The Young Knives : Daft Indie rock from Leicstershire (since emmigrated to Oxford) who started out play Ned's Atomic Dustbin Covers and singing about dying from boredom in Loughborough.

Makeshift Wings : On Hiatus Derby band, part hard rock, part hardcore and part grunge. Did their E.P. artwork and their lives shows were stunning.

Z symbol : Reference to Zenith, an 80's era 2000ad strip by Grant Morrison and Steve Yeowell back when they both tried.

Mega City Four : Farnborough's answer to pop punk who went from the later 80's into the mid 90's. Albums worth hunting are Terribly Sorry Bob and Tranzphobia. Lead singer Wiz formed Ipanema for the last couple of years until his death last year. Had a ticket to his tribute show but had to pull out. Gutted.

Kinesis : No over estimations or melodrama - this band was the most underrated of the decade. Shafted by their label after one (storming) album and forced to sell all their tour gear and personal cash to make a second before splitting up. Kinesis were politically charged, smart, idealistic and two fingers to stale music. The music press loved them and left them and promotion was none exsistant. Buy yourself Handshakes For Bullets off ebay.

D.U.I : Makeshift Wings old band name.

Ride : Early 90's twee middle class shoegazing bunch for Oxford. Did a couple of ok songs (try and find Taste as an example) but it's mostly amp distortion and 18 year old emo.

3CR : Abbreviation for 3 Colours Red, a london Brit Rock band from the late 90's to early 00's who named themselves after a French film. Their guitarist was ex Senseless Things member Ben Harding whilst another was Chris McCormack (brother of Wildhearts member Danny). Their catalogue is deleted but a live album Nuclear Holiday is still lurking in bigger branches of HMV. Top tracks include Paralyse and Pure.

P.W.E.I : Pop Will Eat Itself were a band from the Stourbridge scene of the late 80's/early90's becoming known as the band that officially sold more t-shirts than albums. The band spliced metal with flange, samples and rap (often to a dance beat). The result is in fairness, often a fucking mess with tons of references to tv shows, b-movies, comics and video games thrown in. Tracks worth hearing are Wise Up Sucker, Bulletproof and Not Now James, We're Busy.

Ned's Atomic Dustbin: Also from the Stourbridge scene. Noted for their two bass players that gave some real rythm to the tracks. Early stuff like Plug Me In and Terminally Groovie are fine tracks but it's the top 5 God Fodder album that's the big daddy. That Grey Cell Green, Happy, Cut Up, Less Than Useful and most importantly Kill Your Television. Fell from grace by the third album BrainBloodVolume (the bsides from that era are shite). Get the best of: Some Furtive Years for fiver a HMV.
