TEENAGE FANCLUB – 30 Candles For 3rd Album ‘BANDWAGONESQUE’
19 November 2021
Band: TEENAGE FANCLUB
Who: Scottish indie jingle-jangle rockers
Active: Since 1989 / 11 studio albums
with this year’s Endless Arcade as the
most recent one.
Anniversary album: BANDWAGONESQUE
Released: 19 November 1991 in the US,
and 4 November 1991 in the UK.
AllMusic says: “The gold standard of the early-’90s power pop revival, in its own way Bandwagoneque was as much a benchmark as contemporary records like Nevermind
and Loveless; though not the generational rallying cry of the former nor the revolutionary
sonic breakthrough of the latter, Teenage Fanclub’s 2nf LP nevertheless heralded the return
of melody and craft, coupled with energy and spirit, hallmarks of much of the greatest rock
and roll of the past, and virtues as rare as hen’s teeth in the years immediately prior to the disc’s release.” Full review here. Score: 5/5.
Turn Up The Volume: Status Quo playing slacker rock
with 60s legends The Byrds in harmony on vocals.
Singles/clips: The Concept / What You Do To Me / Star Sign
