Stare - Work EP



STARE
Work EP
1992 Fusebox Records

Notes :
Early 90's UK indie rock band featuring Richard Hammerton (vocals), Michael Brown (guitar), Karl Goodbody (bass) and Paul Youngs (drums).
Their original demo tape "Stare" generated a lot of Record Company interest. Initially on Fusebox, they eventually signed to Big Life and released several singles,and recorded an album called "The Luxury of Anger" which was sadly never released at the time as they parted company with Big Life before that could happen.
Stare were broadcast live as part of Radio 1's Sound City '92 at the The Waterfront in on 26 April 1992, also on the bill were Carter USM, Nick Cave, The Farm and Catherine Wheel.
During the Hiatus of the singles releases, they also recorded a video which appeared on The ITV Chart Show, MTV & VH1.
The band reformed in late 2011 and played The Waterfront in Norwich to mark the 20th anniversary of their Radio 1 live appearance. This coincided with the release, finally, of the album "The Luxury of Anger" in May 2012.
