After featuring The Casual Labourers gig at the Africa Centre, one thought you should hear the other bands on the bill; The Lemon Kittens you can hear HERE.
So that leaves Twelve Cubic Feet; so here's their debut 10" ep on the near perfect Namedrop records; home of Doof and Philip Johnson (who's namedrop release, "Youth In Asia" has been reissued recently,check it out here).
"Paul Platypus(Doof/Reflections), Andrew and Matthew joined Fred, Sally and Glenna to form 12 Cubic Feet, who recorded the second 10" LP on Name-drop Records –with "Evercare". After this and a cassette they fell in with Alan McGee's Creation / Communication Club crowd, and met Dave Evans [Biff Bang Pow] who replaced Matthew on bass. The late Duncan Jack [What is Oil?] replaced Glenna on guitar, Dave Morgan [Take It, The Loft+++] came in on drums... and 12CF cut a final Joe Foster-produced demo. Plans for a new band foundered, and Paul checked into a commune (temporarily); Fred went to university, Dave M got famous, Dave E became a roadie for Jesus & Mary Chain, Shop Assistants and later, Belly; Sally sang in Khmer Rouge, and Matthew and Dan formed Solid Space... Got that?" (info from hyped2death)
Classic proto-indie wimp pop ,with scratchy guitars Joe Meek monophonic organs,and lazy weak vocals. All this and seven catchy tunes that you can dance in an Indie Disco stylee to.
