I did read somewhere that they later evolved into some scarey christian youth cult in Sheffield called the 9 o clock club - kinda like TOPY with sandals I think... anyone know about this? I may be slandering Hula unfairly as there was some sort of scandal associated with these events. Some sort of rave church service???
Incidentally I later bought the records by the three bands I mentioned in that thread about the shop window of missing and predict the Detroit Cobras will sweep the nation.

gaye bikers on acid - are you sure?
out canning can - surely not?
i used to quite like hula but last time i listened to one of their records i thought it hadn't aged too well. i'd say their take on industrial funk was a bit too funkless although their cover of voodoo chile was quite groovesome.

On a totally different point... More on that Nine O Clock service stuff. There is a long complex and, frankly, a bit mental website here Chris Brane (or Brain) is listed as a member of Hula in Martin Strong's great indie discography book and he seemed to be the main cult leader. No mention if other Hula members were involved. I'd love to read more serious analysis of this stuff... that website reminds me of Dr Bronners Soap. Where are they all now?
That site has a link that claims to lead to NOS mp3s but its dead links. Anyone heard this stuff? Does the NOS need a new thread?
