Records
Are pleased to annonce their latest release
of a 33 track round-up from one of the leading UKs 90s garage bands.
RELEASED: FRIDAY 8th DECEMBER 2023
1 Step Forward…
Further Steps represents ’90s garage band The Nuthins’ sole 1997 album and
accompanying session tracks, plus their singles and compilation appearances.
Featuring recordings cut between 1991 and ’98, this expanded album is the
definitive anthology.
Concurrent with both
grunge, baggy, and later Britpop, the backrooms of numerous pubs across the UK
hosted sweaty rock ’n roll shows played by young garage bands unconcerned with
current trends. Undoubtedly, the Pebbles comps of the previous decade paved the
way, and acts like The Nuthins cared more about homaging that old no nonsense
attack and style than getting in the NME. Oddly, this collection sounds less
dated than the majority of the music recorded at the time, precisely because it
wasn't of the time.
From the early days
of The Salisbury Arts Centre and The St John's Tavern to touring Europe, and
gaining airplay on Radio 1, The Nuthins had one hell of a good time doing it.
The pile of singles and the hallowed album that they recorded at the legendary Toe
Rag, all collected here, is their legacy. The band’s sound covered everything
from the mid-60s R&B of debut 'Allergic Kiss' and tougher 'You're To
Blame’, to the 12-string folk-punk of 'Mistake' and 'One Step Forward', the
mid-tempo beat of ‘Next Of Kin’, and their little heard rousing psychedelic
finale, 'Thoughts & Visions'. A lot of moods were tackled.
This collection is
the first of two Nuthins anthologies, with the vinyl rarities/unreleased set,
Oddities, Allsorts & Magic Mixtures, to follow soon. The band were also
recently included on the Cherry Red box set Into Tomorrow - The Spirit Of Mod
1983-2000, alongside such other garage related acts as The Prisoners, The
Milkshakes, The Clique, The Stairs, The Aardvarks, The Bogeymen, Thee
Cherylinas, Jarvis Humby and The Mystreated.
The lads love of
short, simple songs, valve amps, and vintage guitars, organs and drums, mean
these recordings have a timelessness that all fans of Nuggets will cherish.
Thirty years on they still sound great!
