moonshake.jpgThe roster on this flyer is kind of impossibly awesome: a ’90s U.K. post-rock who’s who assembled for a ’90s Christmas show that I know some Idolator readers (and editors) would have cut off a thumb (post-thumb?) to have seen, including Stereolab, Moonshake, Pram, Disco Inferno, Gorky’s Zygotic Mynci, and pre-”Asha” Cornershop. Or perhaps some of you lucky Brits did get to attend! The rest of us can cry about it while enjoying classic MP3s from Moonshake (whose still-in-print Eva Luna LP remains an under-appreciated dub-rock treasure), Stereolab, Disco Inferno (whose out-of-print EPs remain slightly-less-under-appreciated sample-rock treasures), and Maura-fave Pram.

  1. Dick Laurent is dead.

    That’s right, because I need MORE reasons to leave the US…lucky fucks.

    God bless you for bringing up Moonshake.

    I’m going to rip Eva Luna when I go home tonight.

  3. Ned Raggett

    Jesus H. WHAT a bill.

    Thanks for the mention. It’s much appreciated.

    And yeah, that show was just as incredibly %$#@! good as you’d imagine it was. Would that I could time-travel back with my iTalk and record the whole thing… Sigh.

    I’m sure this has already been Idolator’d to death, but Too Pure is no more. %$#@. Thx, Beggars Group.
