Matthew Posted May 16, 2020 Report Posted May 16, 2020 Sad to hear this, Pretty Things are one of my go to bands to listen to. RIP Quote
Joe Posted May 16, 2020 Report Posted May 16, 2020 Love SF SORROW, and it always struck me as proto-Goth. Fave track = "Trust" PARACHUTE is the ABBEY ROAD the Stones never recorded. Their embrace (?) of punk/post-punk, CROSS TALK, is surprisingly convincing. Oh, and the whole ELECTRIC BANANA saga... https://www.cherryred.co.uk/product/the-electric-banana-the-complete-de-wolfe-sessions-3cd-boxset/ Quote
