1988-EPIC
Produced By VIC MAILE
1. Birth, School, Work, Death
2. If I Only Had Time
3. Tell Me Why
4. It’s So Hard
5. When Am I Coming Down
6. Cause I Said So
7. The Strangest Boy
8. S.T.B.
9. Just Like You
10. Obsession
11. Love Is Dead
The 1980’s were the breeding ground for one hit wonders. Some of them were simply flukes, others were accidental. And then there’s The Godfathers. This London band spent their entire career being ignored in their home country, and gained a foothold in America on the strength of one great song. The title track of Birth, School, Work, Death was in rotation for awhile on MTV, and got the band a small audience. Trouble was, this band was nowhere near what people were listening to in 1988. Alternative rock was still just that, and it lived in bands like R.E.M., but there was nothing quite like The Godfathers sound. Britpop was still a few years away, and it no one seemed to be able to figure out this heavy and kind of angry band that was not new wave, glam metal, classic rock, punk or anything else that was happening at the time. In short, The Godfathers were out of time…and ahead of it.
Aside from the hit title track, which was a breath of fresh air in the sea of all the Duran Duran and Poison of the time, Birth, School, Work, Death also included great tracks like “When Am I Coming Down”, a great guitar track with spacey vocals, the anthem like “’Cause I Said So”, the hard driving “Obsession”, and the bouncy, almost punk of “Love Is Dead”. But, alas, the album had few takers. Their career dwindled down to festivals by the early 90’s, and although they’ve had just one hit (and none in their native England), they soldier on. This is one of the great ignored albums of the 80’s, a decade that could use a few more good albums to claim as its own. The band is clearly influenced by The Kinks, The Who and The Small Faces, and it shows in their music with a more modern take. Ahead of their time, they were. And when their time came, no one ever really uncovered them for what they were: a terrific band. [First added to this chart: 08/11/2026]

1996-MINTY FRESH
Produced By TORE "DOCTOR" JOHANSSON
1. Carnival
2. Daddy's Car
3. Fine
4. Rise & Shine
5. Our Space
6. Celia Inside
7. Over The Water
8. Tomorrow
9. Sick & Tired
10. Beautiful One
11. Gordon's Gardenparty
12. Hey! Get Out Of My Way
13. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
14. Happy Meal
The Cardigans are truly one of the strangest bands ever. Coming out of Sweden in 1994, they played a strange loungy mix with dark lyrics. They made their big splash with the song "Lovefool" from their third album...but this is before that. Life is their second album, but this American release contains tracks from their debut record Emmerdale. Led by singer Nina Persson, and two founding members who were actually metal musicians, The Cardigans were a strange mix, especially early on. The easiest way to explain this would be to go out and buy a bunch of mod 60's furniture, then throw a cocktail party and invite only people with short hair and horned rim glasses. This is the music you would play.
On later releases, The Cardigans tried to rock. And the more they tried, the less appealing they were. But this early stuff is catchy and strange. And, yes, track 13 is "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath", the Black Sabbath song. One of the strangest tracks you'll ever hear. They were fun for a while...this is that time.

1996-ATLANTIC
Produced By DAVE BROWN & THE GATHERING FIELD
1. Lost In America
2. Rhapsody In Blue
3. Bound To Be
4. Middle Road
5. Midnight Ghost
6. Are You An Angel?
7. Love Me Good
8. Win You Back Suzanne
9. And I Wanted
10. The Sould Is Human
11. Blue Sky Song
The Gathering Field recorded this album in 1995, and they became big favorites in Pittsburgh. A radio station caught ahold of "Lost In America" and made it a local hit, which got the group a deal with Atlantic Records. After re-releasing the album, they were lost in the corporate shuffle, leading to them getting out of their contract and back into obscurity. Which is too bad, becuase this could have been big. This is a fine roots rock album. Bill Deasy's songs are about Kerouac and Americana, and the band, led by Dave Brown's lead guitar, is excellent.
"Lost In America" is a fine song. "Rhapsody In Blue", "Bound To Be", and "Are You An Angel?" all could have been hits. The band recorded two more independant albums before breaking up in 2002. If you can find this one, it's well worth having. A fine debut album from a band that should have gone places. [First added to this chart: 06/17/2026]

1993-MAVERICK
Produced by Kelly Gray, Jon Plum & Candlebox
1. Don't You
2. Change
3. You
4. No Sense
5. Far Behind
6. Blossom
7. Arrow
8. Rain
9. Mother's Dream
10. Cover Me
11. He Calls Home
Candlebox was very promising. They took their name from a Midnight Oil lyric, they came from Seattle at a time when being from Seattle was everything, and were the first band signed to Madonna's Maverick label. The debut album showed a lot of promise, and it looked like Candlebox was destined to do great things. And everyone had this album. To the point where I've had it offered to me for free no fewer than 5 times. The copy I had was given to me by someone who didn't want it.
The album is highlighted by the guitar work of Peter Klett, particularly on "Rain". So why does this album bug me? I think that it's the melody lines and the vocals. The band sounds great, but singer Kevin Martin never seems to go where you want him to. It makes the songs seem less than what they can be. Still, the promise is there (their 2nd album, Lucy, did not deliver, however). It's a decent debut, but I still don't think it's a great one. [First added to this chart: 06/17/2026]

1993-TOO PURE
NO PRODUCTION CREDIT
1. Sparklingly Chime
2. Heart Fog
3. See-Saw
4. Kevin
5. The People
6. Curly Lips
7. Everything, All At Once Forever
One of the easiest ways to get a garage band jamming is to start playing any kind of a cool guitar lick. The rest of the band will join in, and you have the makings of a 20 minute workout. This is the world of Th’ Faith Healers, a British band that made two albums in the mid 90’s based on exactly that premise. Part of what was known as the Camden Lurch scene (all music in the UK is apparently required to be part of a named scene), this band thrived on repetition. It was all about finding a cool groove, driving it around for awhile, and hopefully stopping before you beat it into the ground. Imaginary Friend is the Healer’s last album, and they mostly did a great job of keeping the listener engaged. The first six tracks are catchy, great sounding pieces of groove that are interesting and that work very well. In fact, had they come up with one or two more to run the album to about 40 minutes, this would easily be a five star entry.
Aaaand then we have track number seven. “Everything, All At Once Forever” is how the band rode into the sunset. The first six songs come in at a combined 32 minutes. This song is a repetitive, monotonous, and if you concentrate on it, almost unlistenable torturous 40 minutes long. It could have easily been a good song at about six or seven minutes tops, but they just kept going. And going. The best way to listen to Imaginary Friend is to just stop it when it starts eating your brain. Trust me…it doesn’t get any better. Which really is too bad, because the rest of the album is quite good. Particularly, “The People” has a great groove, which they ride to perfection. It’s understandable that they split up after this. And it’s too bad that they left us with such a stinker of a track at the end of this album. Again…listen to the first six songs, then turn it off when you need to.
