Has anybody else heard this record? Have been playing it all week (for the first time since maybe 2000) and if anything, these two girls + a guy have improved with age. They put this (punk?) rock record out back in '95, then disappeared forever. I used to bring them up to music-savvy friends all the time but no-one seemed to have ever heard of them...

The Australian band? On Fellaheen? I've got their Find What You Like And Let It Kill You, but that's all.

Yeah, thats why i'm confused, but the lyrics posted above don't seem at all familiar.

I have everything they released except for the split one with diolene (chocolate sea i think it was) but those lyrics just don't sound familiar at all.

Supposing we're talking about the aussie three-piece, they broke up and Kim Myer is now performing with Black Mamba.

i have the diolene split and it doesn't have those lyrics either, that i'm aware of. there was a UK band called Fur around the same time, but they were indie janglers and didn't rock at all.

I think we're thinking of two different bands. This one was from the U.S.

The one I'm referring to, that is.

― Raymond Cummings (Raymond Cummings), Monday, 22 November 2004 12:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Well I'm glad we got that settled finally.

So...there are three bands called 'Fur'?

― Kevin Gilchrist (Mr Fusion), Monday, 22 November 2004 14:50 (twenty-one years ago)

It appears that way.

I was a crazy fan of the Australian one for some time in my teens.
