Echobelly : Tell Me Why
Surely there are far more dignified and far less dreary ways of following up a nearly successful career than this smorgasbord...
Echobelly, on the other hand, are one of those bands who will have people sniggering into their pints, "Jesus, they're not still going are they?" at the merest mention. In case you don't remember, the 'Belly were one of an elite clutch of bands thrown briefly into the limelight in the slipstream of Britpop, before sinking as quickly as you could say "Menswear". It's a shame to have to be harsh, but surely there are far more dignified and far less dreary ways of following up a nearly successful career than this smorgasbord. Have you ever considered production or something?
