Sheffield's Suncharms played a brand of indie guitar pop that was sometimes fast and thrashy, but at other times moodily atmospheric; an understanding of the mechanics of light and shade lifted them above the run-of-the-mill indie bands of the time. Apart from the two highly collectable 12" singles on Wilde Club (the tiny label which launched the career of the Catherine Wheel), I'm unaware of any other releases. |
The band were still together in 1993, as I recall they were mentioned in an NME article about Radio One's 'Sound City' event, which was hosted by Sheffield that year. Can anybody help with some information? |
