a mix between The Stone Roses and Primal Scream with the swagger of Oasis

man the credits on liam's last album are bizarre. why does danny l harle have a production credit on some awful reggae rock track? why does ezra koenig play on a bunch of tracks & have a writing/production credit on one (not that you can tell)

It's when you have plenty of money to throw around for your vanity solo project, is my guess.

Good to see mc tunes is still way out of his league though

He did something with yr man out of Ocean Colour scene a few years ago, a Weller song...could they be any more parochial?

this thread started out as farce and has descended into tragedy

Mirroring the career arc of most of the bands in it

liam seems like a way better guy to hang out w.than noel

bloke from semisonic told his experience of being recruited for a Liam solo album on podcast Comedy Bang Bang last month, which is likely representative of many of these credits

Some old school flavour

First video is a live cover of Stone Roses…

Now, if only Bobby Gillespie would have joined that new group with Liam Gallagher and John Squire, then this truly would have been a damningly prescient thread.

Squire singing, Liam playing the guitar, Bobby bobbying.

Not quite the Ryan Trecartin-inspired ladrock crossover it hints at

i'm even more baffled by "watch you fall" after listening to a single other song of theirs which is exactly the ladrock i expected

Possibly some kind of instrument ID switch in the MIDI tracks behind the vocal. Can't believe how bad the lipsync is in the videos, it's not even iMovie standard.

In this photograph Liam Gallagher and John Squire have extremely strong 'mother and son in a BBC 'North West Tonight' story about 'aggressive cold call door to door sales deliberately targeting the vulnerable' energy. pic.twitter.com/iRUpvtrD4d

lol

perfect

#onethread Show me some men who look like old lesbians!

it reminds me of an old Japanese painting I saw. I think it was called something like "The Skeleton and the Witch".

Squire always looks so self consciously po-faced in pics - like he's holding a facial pose he thinks is most flattering to his ugly mug, doesn't he ever smile? God help him if he thinks he looks enigmatic doing this!

These guys all eventually turn into John Craven, it's a genetic inevitability

Don't remember this lot at all

Probably for the best

Vaguely remember them as a late 80s band who I think toured fairly regularly with Senseless Things

ah yeah, i can see that! though i'm still not sure where the guy with the shades fits into the whole thing

ha I actually have that song on this (pretty good) compilation: https://www.discogs.com/release/13004134-Various-Just-A-Bad-Dream-Sixty-British-Garage-And-Trash-Nuggets-1981-89

ah context! cheers boss, theres a 50p copy of it in chichester but you'll have to spend 15 quid and half the day on the train to get there :)

These days, as anyone who has seen them in the flesh could tell you, Kula Shaker’s live shows are less like gigs than bona-fide happenings… communal gatherings of like-minded souls where the bilateral flow of positive energy feels powerful enough to levitate the Royal Albert Hall.

Named after a 10th century south-Indian poet King, Kula Shaker, carried their royal flag of retro freakery and spiritual sonics to the toppermost of the poppermost during the heady days of Britpop, with songs like ‘Tattva’ and ‘Hush’ and from the multi-platinum selling album ‘K’. Fast forward to present day, and 2024 sees the band ride out once again, mystical-machine-guns-a-blazing, with the release of ‘Natural Magick’ — their 7th studio album.

Kula Shaker’s timely reboot seems in no small part due to one key development, which Kula konnoisseurs have long dreamed about — the return of Hammond organ wizard Jay Darlington after a decade with Oasis and various Gallaghers. Now the four original members of the band’s classic line-up: Crispian Mills (guitar) Alonza Bevan (bass) and Paul Winter Hart (drums) — are reunited for the first time since 1999’s ‘Peasants, Pigs & Astronauts’, and with a 13-track album featuring some of their best songs to date, the band look set to scale the dizzy heights once more.

I bet when he takes them shades off he looks older than his mum

when one of the two big hits you namecheck is your Deep Purple (i know, don't @ me) cover version

Nice of Michael Fabricant to loan him his wig.

Feller on the left is a dead ringer for one of the actors in Limmy's show

I like that they name the king that they’re named after

How do they have seven albums

every current member of Kula Shaker has their own individual wikipedia page, which seems like overkill

Paul Winter-Hart (born 19 September 1971) is the drummer for the English band Kula Shaker.[1] He grew up in East Pennard, Somerset, and is noted for being reserved in interviews.[2]

Oh we share a birthday. East Pennard isn't too far away either. I'm finding this almost interesting.

Funniest bit on the Kula page: Mills commented in 2016, "The musical styles on K are mainstream now. [In 1996] people didn't know how to understand it or where to place it, so all that was left to do was deride it."[22]

Never heard of them before, but I present to you Brigitte Calls Me Baby.

Barnet FC should sign them up

They appear to be from Chicago.
