The Wolfhounds began as a slightly askew pop/rock band, first coming to most people's attention via the C86 compilation. However, as the band progressed over the years, they developed an individual voice. Their final album Attitude found them in Sonic Youth territory, interspersing raging guitars with elegant compositional exercises. Wolfhounds member Dave Callahan went on to form Moonshake.
A Witness were an alternative rock band formed in 1982 in Stockport, Cheshire, England, by Rick Aitken, Vince Hunt and a drum machine, in 1986 replaced by Alan Brown (ex Big Flame). Keith Curtis and Noel Kilbride joined the group in 1983. Initially signing to the Ron Johnson label, debut EP Loudhailer Songs put them at the forefront of a wave of Beefheart-influenced bands that emerged in the mid-1980's. They gained further attention due to the inclusion of the track "Sharpened Sticks" on the NME's C86 cassette in the following year.
Horsebeach hail from Manchester, UK. Their debut self titled single contains two contrasting tracks that give you a steady introduction to their sound. 'Even' is a darker story of hope and a re occurring dream of loss that is accompanied by a jangly, dreamy overtone. Where 'You Know' is a carefree lo-fi pop gem with a message of youth and love. Horsebeach influences contain Shimmering Stars, Wild Nothing and all things surf.
