3 inch CDR from this band based in Coventry, UK.
Indie lo-fi guitar pop - you know the type - jangly chiming
guitars with a touch of psychedelia thrown in for good
measure.
Released 4-track tape cassette albums via fanzines in the
early 90s before being asked to produce singles for the likes
of Pillarbox Red records (UK) and most notably Sunday Records
(USA).s
Debuted with the Souls to the Devil 7" e.p for Sunday, which
was quickly followed by the Kimberley Somebody single. The
Pristines also appear on Sunday Records compilations and also
featured on the Happy Sunday rare flexi with a cover version
of labelmates They Go Boom! "She's Not My Friend".
The Pristines finest moment on Sunday was the album
Teen-Fraud, Pop-Whore (part one), which still sounds as
refreshing and pure today as it did when released in 1995.
Other mentions must go out to all the other labels that also
put-out material be as singles, cassette-singles or on
compilations. Most notably Elefant (Spain), Meller Welle
Produkte (Ger), A Turntable Friend (Ger) and Sofa (Japan).
The Pristines still release CD albums today, however, no
longer for Sunday but purely self-produced. "Teen-Fraud" was
followed up by the equally poppy Get Caught in Showtime
(2000), and the much darker & challenging 3rd album Who Put
Bella in the Wych Elm? (2003). Before a whopping 17-track
third album Coping: Not Coping (2005).
