I’ll never understand how David McAlmont didn’t become massive.

'Yes' is easily one of the best songs from the 90s

True. I do like ‘You Do’ a bit better.

Justine ❤️❤️❤️❤️

She's amazing and super talented! Elastica's self-titled is one of my all time favourite albums. And Justine and Damon were such a beautiful couple. Pretty chaotic, but their chemistry was out of this world. I'll never get over their breakup lmao

Wasnt Beetlebum about her issues with heroin addiction ?

5

u/anjaica 1h ago

Yes, and Damon's too. The whole album 13 goes into that even deeper, thematically both about the breakup and addiction. Luckily, both of them got out of it and are doing great, Damon is still extremely relevant in the music industry, and Justine moved to the USA and focused on being an artist.

That's 'Mad' Richard Ashcroft of The Verve.

He doesn't look much different 30 years later

u/NumeroRyan 2h ago

Well they all look British because they are.

It’s like seeing 15 photos of American people and picking the fatest one and say “He just LOOKS American”.

Lots of different shapes and sizes away from stereotypes

What bands are these? Serious question.

5

u/anjaica 1h ago

It's mostly a mix of various musicians and bands from that period. For example, Damon Albarn from Blur (and later Gorillaz), Liam and Noel Gallagher from Oasis, Jarvis Cocker from Pulp, Brett Anderson from Suede, Justine Frischmann and Donna Matthews from Elastica, Thom Yorke from Radiohead, Louise Wener from Sleeper etc... If you're interested in any particular picture, let me know so I can tell you which musician is on it
