Les Enfants Terribles - Another Country





LES ENFANTS TERRIBLES
Another Country
1990 Midnight Music

Notes :

One of the best records i received in the last few months is ''Another Country'', great album by obscure late 80's / early 90's indie rock band from Tours, France - Les Enfants Terribles.


Les Enfants Terribles were formed in 1985 and disbanded in 1990, band members were: Nicolas Glorion (vocal & bass), Xavier Monjanel (guitar & backing vocal), Antoine Coinde (guitar) and Olivier Descroix (drums).


Band started in April 1985 under the name ''Acid Brains'', then in September 1985 changed their name to ''Another Country''. In September 1988 they signed contract with Midnight Music, one of the best UK indie labels from that period and they changed their name to Les Enfants Terribles.

For this label band released two records, in 1989 their debut, 12'' single called ''Paths Of Glory'' and one year later their amazing album ''Another Country''.


During this period they played various live gigs around France, supporting some of the biggest names from that period, bands like The Wild Swans, The Beloved, The Woodentops, Xymox, 10000 Maniacs, TV Personalities, And Also The Trees.

Ever - Virginize




EVER
Virginize
1991 Midnight Music

Notes :
Early 90's baggy single by Ever released on great Midnight Music label. Very obscure band, members were Lyndon Dempsey (vocals), Peter Whittick (guitar), Andy Prosser (bass) and Fin Scott Kenny (drums).
This is probably same band that in 1988 together with The Grooveyard released split flexi single ''Summer / Sleepyhead'' on Playroom Discs. For the same label they recorded single in 1988 called ''Carousel EP'' but was never released. I think i have somewhere copy. At this period they were jangle pop band.
In 1991 one of their tracks ''Really Tired'' was released on great ''Forever Changing'' compilation, this is my favourite Ever track, i wish they released more stuff like this one.
