Any fans? Just got introduced to them and now i have "i don't mind" and "everybody's happy nowadays" on my mind constantly. con-stan-tly. awesome stuff. For some redicolous reason they remind of the misfits... i know i know. maybe it's the energy and the 50's chord progressions. |

I was a major buzzcocks fan in college. "A Different Kind of Tension" is my favorite "depressing" album of all time. Great pop songs about being miserable!!! I was in a band that covered "Everybody's Happy Nowadays" which is an wonderfully fun song to play, in the same vein of fun-ness that Devo's "Uncontrollable Urge" is fun to play.

never been a huge fan of english punk but Ever Fallen In Love is one of my favourite pop songs ever.if you like this stuff try listening to the undertones and stiff little fingers.

Who needs tabs for the Buzzcocks?? Super-easy stuff!!
I play about 20 of their songs, they were definitely one of the greatest bands.. I'm not liking much of the recent stuff tho. |

i was introduced to them through Frank Black, indirectly.
Frank guest DJ'd on a radio show here, in support of his first, self-titled album (aka. The Unambiguously Yellow Yellowey-yellow Album)..
he played, "I Believe".. great song.
i listened to them for a while, but kind of maxed out. i actually think one of their best songs is the one the drummer sings.. but i can't think of the name of it right now.
if you're curious, Frank also played some Bowie, Reverend Horton Heat, Clash... and i can't remember who else. |

Have you heard Shelleydevoto? Aargh, New Wave! They're on Cooking Vinyl, though, which is a good start.

Sometimes simple is best.

Yep, got the Shelledevoto album. It's patchy and a bit odd but some of the tracks are excellent.
The new Buzzcocks album is very good, if not a little formulaic.

I do! There about five tabs I could find on the internet. Found it hard to figure the tabs out, because of the two guitars. Dave, could you please send them to me?
Thanks a lot!
