a mix between The Stone Roses and Primal Scream with the swagger of Oasis

The nu-H#1 are essentially every other band on this thread but with the minuscule advantage of technically having been in the charts about twice

Colchester rock band Koopa have made chart history by becoming the first unsigned act to enter the UK Top 40; Their new single Blag, Steal & Borrow debuted at number 31. How have they managed it? Through downloads. (2007)

lol i thought hard about posting that on here

they look like Blink wannabes tho rather than Campaign for Real Rock lads

They want to be Blink 182 but at heart they are a mix between The Stone Roses and Primal Scream with the swagger of Oasis is how i see it

lol this is the end of their wikipedia entry

2010: Koopa return
After spending time away, the band have announced they will be making a return in late 2010, having had a very deliberate six months or so "out of the loop", and after working and touring solidly for eight years. Joe Murphy said: "We've been out of the loop by choice. When you gig for so long, it gets a bit samey, so we took a bit of a break after the last few tours."[citation needed]

The band announced that their break was taken to develop a slightly new sound and new songs.

Back to basics, just three lads in a room, workin' it out

Man can’t wait for that new sound and songs

whoa hold on there, it's a slightly new sound, they aren't going to stray far from that Koopa sound we all know and love

whew

this is the most 2000s looking band I've ever seen, like a fictional band in a tv show set in in 2004 that they add as a period detail to remind that it's 2004

i think critiquing people based on looks is always a bad thing to do so i must remain silent

Is Boab available?

I came here expressly to post that link on this thread.

Sometimes, the stars align...

We need Noel and Ian Brown to form a revenge supergroup now. Perhaps Boaby could play tambourine in both?

The only time I saw P Scream live, c.1986, they had a dedicated tambourine player, who wore black leather gloves. Bobby a stickler for the health and safety of his bandmates back then.

I'm hanging fire with my excitement until Northside Uproar happens

man the credits on liam's last album are bizarre. why does danny l harle have a production credit on some awful reggae rock track? why does ezra koenig play on a bunch of tracks & have a writing/production credit on one (not that you can tell)

It's when you have plenty of money to throw around for your vanity solo project, is my guess.

Good to see mc tunes is still way out of his league though

He did something with yr man out of Ocean Colour scene a few years ago, a Weller song...could they be any more parochial?

this thread started out as farce and has descended into tragedy

liam seems like a way better guy to hang out w.than noel

bloke from semisonic told his experience of being recruited for a Liam solo album on podcast Comedy Bang Bang last month, which is likely representative of many of these credits

Some old school flavour

First video is a live cover of Stone Roses…

Now, if only Bobby Gillespie would have joined that new group with Liam Gallagher and John Squire, then this truly would have been a damningly prescient thread.

Squire singing, Liam playing the guitar, Bobby bobbying.

Not quite the Ryan Trecartin-inspired ladrock crossover it hints at

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ydz-AoyQhk

i'm even more baffled by "watch you fall" after listening to a single other song of theirs which is exactly the ladrock i expected

Possibly some kind of instrument ID switch in the MIDI tracks behind the vocal. Can't believe how bad the lipsync is in the videos, it's not even iMovie standard.
