Looking for Band Name

Post by Structo »

I think it was this forum where I saw it but there is a Youtube video of this English band where they are in a shack or trailer, really squeezed in there and are rehearsing.

Seems like it was in black and white.

Kind of a punk band I think and they have been around for a long time.

Singer wears black framed glasses.

Does this ring a bell with anyone?

I remember seeing that too. Someone from TAG had posted a link a while back. The band was like a jazz influenced punk band with a definite flair for the avant-garde.

Love The Cardiacs! Great guitar tone in that video. The intro and bridges remind me of Steve Howe. The Cardiacs sound kind of like an unhinged Yes :wink: Killer!

Chief Mushroom Cloud originally posted the Cardiacs youtube link. I had not heard of them before. I'm glad he introduced them. 8)
