DROP 81

This is the first of two songs I'm posting from Grimsby Fishmarket 4 Norrkoeping 0 - the tape I mentioned in the last post and that I'm guessing came at the same time as the fourth issue of the fanzine. The full tracklisting can be found on TweeNet. It's a capital crime The Orchids didn't keep a master tape of "And When I Wake Up", because it is definitely one of their best songs! Apparently there's been a thread on the Indiepop list about this after I put in on a cd I gave to Brogues... If you're on the list, Marianthi was kind enough to give you a download link for the whole tape. If not, here you go.

nice one, Chris....
I would actually want to know mopre about the band, Bummer Twins and Roof that were featured in this compilation because I can't find any info about them and I think their music was great!

Thanks!

Hi,

According to the fanzine

Roof - have a mini album (doesn't say what it is called) out on a Japanese major. They also appear on the CD compilation 'Innocence & Peppermints'

Bummer Twins - Are no more, rumours say that bus driving affected them more than being pop stars so...
They originally called themselves Surf & Destroy but changed there name two days before this fanzine was photocopied.

I hope that helps a little bit
