For Against made some great records in the 80s, very good ones in the 90s and great ones on the 00s.
Pretty, gloomy, and sad post-punk stuff.

Unrelated, I think I’ve listened to the first Elastica record three times in the last two days.

Gonna add two, the first is a bit of an oddity for the question asked. But I'm working on this piece, the music us stunning: Tarraga's Lágrima. Capricho Árabe & Recuerdos de la Alhambra are also, but much more complex.

As for a proper band, I discovered Moulettes tonite. One sing in particular and it is divine: "Songbirds." The band is not well known here in the Southern US. They should be. They are great!

I get so much shit for really liking The Steve Miller Band.

Also, Chicago. Go figure

I dunno man, those bands were HUGE. They have sold millions of albums and played in front of millions of fans-- most of them just happen to be baby boomers. It's not like you're in uncharted "hidden gem" territory there. :whistle:

Hey, they're friends of mine! You can get guitar lessons from Harry at his home studio here in town.
