I think it’s accepted that the Stars of Heaven had a terrible manager and hadn’t the gumption to get rid of him as he was a close friend and that ultimately was their undoing.
I’ve never liked The Thrills but there’s a bang of more ‘uptempo’ Elliott Smith (circa Figure 8 perhaps) off that
The Thrills were an Irish gem.
All joking aside, I did always like this song
Daycent 
I never minded One Horse Town actually.
Power of dreams - 100 ways to kill a love.
One of the best. Should’ve been a top song in the UK charts in early 90s. Management was shite and that was that.
“Gale force wind” and “town to town” were two other cracking Microdisney songs
Compulsion - Mall Monarchy
Featuring Jacknife Lee on guitar. He produced the last few R.E.M. albums and worked with Snow Patrol.
Nevertheless it’s a good song.
Never seen that before. He went on to produce rakes of artists, the likes of Taylor Swift and U2 and some other shithouses.
Great album, in top 5 of all time Irish I would say. Listen to it a lot. I’d say @Turenne hates it with the reference to a (white) guy hitting a woman.
Myself and @farmerinthecity are big fans of that album. I always found McKee to be a bit of a cock, but he did deliver a fantastic album there. Twinkle is unrale.
