Secondsoul 12/04/2012 15:20They were the greatest band ever. Why they were never as successful as The Smiths and Stone Roses totally escapes me. So many bands around today were influenced by The Chameleons - Interpol, Editors, The Horrors,etc.
The Chameleons sit right alongside Kitchens of Distinction and The Call as amazing great bands of the 1980's that somehow got totally overlooked by almost everyone. Luckily a few discerning fans and critics took notice. Hopefully more people can find out about them after the fact.
HaydenLike a mixture of the Cure & Joy Division...Maybe with a little bit more in there too. Great band, highly underrated.
so strange that such a good band is so much unknown, they deserve as much recognition as Joy Division at least.
an_outlawI'm going to have to listen to them then.
KneadSilentedTheDeep 10/22/2010 18:44The most inciteful critics have long considered The Chameleons one of the greatest bands. Sorry to be an intellectual snob, but most people doing these "rankings" often employ slapdash and ill-conceived criteria, and have little capacity to understand the timeless brilliance of Script of the Bridge, Strange Times, and What Does Anything Mean, Basically. The Chameleons have influenced the likes of Oasis, Radiohead, Interpol, and are praised by New Order, The Smiths, The Fall and other Manchesterians. Get a clue..
