Noted as influences by the likes of My Bloody Valentine, Ride, The Stone Roses, Primal Scream, and The Charlatans, among many others, legendary Paisley Underground group Rain Parade return for the first London headline concert in decades.
Matt Piucci and Steven Roback have been writing songs together since 1981, and are co-founders, along with David Roback, of Rain Parade. Their debut album, Emergency Third Rail Power Trip, released by Enigma Records in the US and Demon Records in the UK in 1983, is internationally recognized as a masterpiece.
The follow up EP, Explosions In The Glass Palace (1984) garnered the same high praise, and its reputation has been increasing ever since. Sid Griffin, author and leader of The Long Ryders has said: “We were in the Paisley Underground with Rain Parade back in the 1980s… Explosions In The Glass Palace is and will forever be the BEST recording from a Paisley Underground band, be it us, The Dream Syndicate, The Bangles, The Three O’Clock or whomever.”
Rain Parade are back with a brand new album Last Rays of a Dying Sun.
