Release Notes:
Legendary Sheffield band Artery got back together a year or
two ago to start playing shows again locally and in London,
Manchester et. al. They just put out a new EP, their first in
25 years, called Standing Still. It sounds fantastic so far
and not just a token release from a band gigging again. I got
into them a few years back after seeing the documentary Made
in Sheffield. It tells the story of the underground music
scene in that town in the late 70s through the early 80s.
Sheffield may have inflicted Def Leppard upon us but out of
that weird little city in the north came Cabaret Voltaire,
Pulp, Comsat Angels, Heaven 17, ABC (not to be confused with
Another Bad Creation) and The Human League, among others. All
those bands have been influential in pop and "alternative"
music but don't often get the credit they deserve. Artery
should have been famous but they never really were.
