NORTHSIDE Chicken Rhythms 1991



Northside are a band from Moston, Manchester, England, that borrowed heavily from the Madchester scene of the time. Formed in 1989, they released their only album Chicken Rhythms on Factory Records in 1991. The band became known for their live shows as part of what was the 1990 indie-rave scene. Their style was more to do with The Charlatans, as opposed The Stone Roses.

Discogs

Wikipedia:
Doppelgänger is the 1992 debut album by the British band Curve. A continuation of the musical idiom established by the group on its three earlier EPs, the record combines elements of dance music and alternative rock with the reverb- and distortion-heavy stylings of "shoegazing".

LARD Last Temptation of Reid 1990



Wikipedia:
Lard is a hardcore punk/Industrial band founded in 1988 as a side project by Jello Biafra (vocals), Al Jourgensen (guitar), Paul Barker (bass), and Jeff Ward (drums).[1] Biafra is perhaps best known as the former frontman of the punk rock band Dead Kennedys. Jourgensen is the founder and only continuous member of industrial metal band Ministry, of which Barker was an official member between 1988 and 2004, and Ward was also once a touring member. Over the years, several other members of Ministry played with Lard, namely Bill Rieflin, Mike Scaccia, and Rey Washam.

Like most of Biafra's work, Lard's songs are angrily political (the War on Drugs is a particularly common theme) but often have a tinge of humour.

VELOCITY GIRL Copacetic 1993

 

 Discogs

 

Wikipedia: Velocity Girl was an American indie rock band formed in 1989 in College Park, Maryland, although it was generally known as a Washington, DC-area band. The band took its name from a Primal Scream B-side. While much 1990s rock music featured an abrasive vocal and instrumental style, Velocity Girl's sound, especially post-1993, was more melodic and typically featured "clean" (non-distorted) electric guitar sounds and two-part harmonies. However, on their first seven-inch records on Slumberland and Merge, as well as their first Sub Pop album, Copacetic, Velocity Girl were noted for their shoegaze influences. The band was noted for its love of releasing a steady stream of 7" vinyl singles. Slumberland Records was formed in 1989 by members of several D.C.-area bands, including Velocity Girl.

L7 Bricks Are Heavy 1992



Wikipedia:

L7 was formed by Donita Sparks and Suzi Gardner on shared electric guitar and shared vocals. A year previous, Gardner had performed backing vocals on the Black Flag song "Slip It In". The punk rock duo were soon joined by Jennifer Finch on bass guitar and Roy Koutsky on drums. Koutsky left shortly after and Demetra Plakas ("Dee" for short) became their permanent drummer.

The band's name derives from a 1950s slang phrase meaning "square," but is often mistaken for a reference to the sex position, "69".

DICKLESS



Here's all the songs by Dickless. Kelly Canary, due to her growling vocals, destroyed her vocal chords. Jana went on to release a couple of solo albums.

From LastFM
Dickless was a short lived all-girl band from Seattle, Washington. Signed to Sub Pop records, they released their only record in May 1990.

The original line-up consisted of Kelly Canary (vocals), Kerry Green (guitar), Jana McCall (bass), and Lisa Smith (drums). Jennie Trower eventually replaced McCall on bass guitar, while Meagan Jasper replaced Canary on vocals in the band’s later days.

KAREN FINLEY A Certain Level of Denial 1994



Wikipedia:

Karen Finley (b. 1956, Evanston, Illinois) is a controversial American performance artist, whose theatrical pieces and recordings have often been labelled "obscene" due to their graphic depictions of sexuality, abuse, and disenfranchisement. She was notably one of the NEA Four, four performance artists whose grants from the National Endowment for the Arts were vetoed in 1990 by John Frohnmayer after the process was condemned by Senator Jesse Helms under "decency" issues.

FM EINHEIT [sen'sei∫n deθ] 1997

Artist Biography by John Bush

Stein The "chief machinery operator" for German industrial terrorists Einstürzende Neubauten from the band's inception in 1983, F.M. Einheit has had plenty of time to record side projects between his group's usually relaxed release schedule (one which also permits bandmate Blixa Bargeld to play with Nick Cave's Bad Seeds). Einheit recorded his first project, 1990's Stein, just after the sessions for Einstürzende Neubauten's Haus der Luege. Then he formed a band -- confusingly named Stein -- with Ulrike Haage and Katharina Franck of the Rainbirds; the project released Steinzeit in 1992 and Königzucker two years later; in the meantime, he released his second proper solo album, Prometheus/Lear, in 1993. With poet Andreas Ammer, Einheit recorded the Radio Inferno LP (which also included the talents of DJ John Peel and guitarist Caspar Brötzmann) and recorded again with Brötzmann on the album Merry Christmas in 1995 and left Neubauten during the sessions for Ende Neu due to a lack of creative interest in the project. Einheit returned in 1997 with Sensation Death for Invisible Records. One of his major projects post-Einstürzende Neubauten was forming the band Gry with vocalist Gry Bagøien from Denmark. They released two albums: The Touch of E! (1998) and Public Recording (2000, featuring Pan Sonic and former Neubauten bandmate Alexander Hacke). Crashing Aeroplanes with Andreas Ammer followed in 2002.

Terre Haute Einheit began collaborating, writing and scoring various theater and radio plays over the next four years. He also created his own label, FM 451 to reissue his catalog works. He returned to recording in 2006, releasing Echohce in collaboration with Jamie Lidell, David Link, Saskia v. Klitzing and Volker Kamp, followed by The Sallie House with Michael Esposito in 2008 and No Apologies with Hans-Joachim Irmler the following year. Evol/Ve with Massimo Pupillio was issued in 2010. In 2011, Einheit collaboration with Irmler again. The album, entitled Spielwiese 3 -- a further chapter in the latter's soundfield explorations -- included German multimedia performer Ute-Marie Paul and American composer and bassoon player Katherine Young. Over the next two years, Einheit did the occasional experimental live performance with former Einstürzende Neubauten bandmate Hacke, as well scoring for film and theater. In 2013, he cut the electro-acoustic offering Terre Haute with En Esch (formerly of KMFDM) and Mona Mur. Einheit joined forces with experimental Italian guitarist, electro-producer, and sound designer Eraldo Bernocchi and London-based cellist Jo Quail on Rosebud, issued by RareNoise, delivering a compelling mix of ambient and industrial music.

SUN 60 self titled 1992


 Discogs



Wikipedia:
Sun-60 (later Sun 60 without the hyphen) were a Los Angeles Alternative rock band from 1987-1996.

The band was notable for the vocal gymnastics of Joan Jones, the guitar riffs of David Russo, clever song-writing, and an eclectic combination of styles, including folk, alt rock, pop, and blues.

Despite a cult following, considerable commercial potential, and moderate success both as a touring live act and on record, the band never quite caught on, and split in 1996.

LINDA PERRY After Hours 1995

 
 
Linda Perry was lead singer of 4 Non Blondes, who released one album then took off for greener pastures. In 1995, Perry released After Hours which remains my favourite solo release. She really put her soul into this and her voice is just as strong as ever. Perry is also well known as a talented producer, sound engineer, musician and songwriter, having penned songs for such artists as Pink and Cristina Aguilera. I don't really think there is much that this woman cannot do.

DIVINYLS Underworld 1996



In 1991, the Divinyls received international acclaim with their hit I Touch Myself. However, long before that hit, where many Americans finally "discovered" the band, the Divinyls were ripping up the stages all around the world and had released 4 prior albums, all unfortunately ignored by American rock radio. After their self titled release in 1991, it was another 5 years before the Divinyls released their last full length CD, Underworld.
The Divinyls regrouped in 2007, did a mini-tour of Australia and released a single, "Don't Wanna Do This."
