Biography
1) Revolver (UK) were a London based guitar band in existence from 1990-1994, comprising of Mat Flint (guitar/vocals), Hamish Brown (bass) and Nick Dewey (drums). Flint and Dewey had been in school bands together, and when the two moved to London in the autumn of 1990 met Brown who completed the line-up.
The band, after attracting attention from several record labels, signed to the Virgin records subsidiary Hut Records in the summer of 1991. The band quickly picked up a following, supporting the likes of Chapterhouse, Slowdive, Teenage Fanclub and Blur, and gained a lot of press coverage, most notably in NME, Melody Maker and The Face. Their first single, “Heaven Sent An Angel” topped the UK independent charts, as did the follow-up “Crimson”, and the third single “Venice”. The band specialised in bright, abrasive guitar-pop songs with strong melodies, and were determined (but ultimately failed) to distinguish themselves from the other guitar bands of the era. The UK press lumped them in with the shoegazer movement, a tag that the band weren’t comfortable with.
A compilation of these first 3 singles was released in the States as “Baby’s Angry” on Caroline Records, and gained the band airplay on US college radio. The band toured America in the autumn of 1992, on a co-headlining tour with fellow Caroline Records act Drop Nineteens.

Почему то изначально думал, что они британцы. Клип Get Around Town пропитан духом Англии, к тому же все качественно и без акцента )

Tyaaaa

I think both EPs can be called "fantastic", but I prefer album versions of Get Around Town, Leave Me Alone and Balulalow
