Chapterhouse Discography of CDs

Chapterhouse discography Victim of a double whammy -- caught in the already building backlash to the shoegazer scene at home and completely ignored in the States, as was just about anything else British -- once Nevermind and Ten hit the charts Chapterhouse's album debut could have, and should have, won a bigger name for itself. At once more dance-flirting and garage-punky than most recordings by other My Bloody Valentine obsessives that emerged in the early '90s, though suffering ...

Chapterhouse songs One of the last bands in need of "best-of" treatment, Chapterhouse released only two studio albums, both of which were reissued around the time Sony BMG threw together The Best of Chapterhouse. (Whirlpool was expanded to 16 tracks in 2006; Blood Music was reissued in 2008, just months after this set.) If anything, a reissue of 1996's Rownderbowt, a compilation of EP tracks and demos, should have been in order. Instead, here is a 15-track overview. ...

Chapterhouse CD discography Even more out of sync with the prevailing trends upon its release -- Suede had hit the U.K. and Brit-pop's incipient reign was under way, while the U.S.A. still wanted its rock as manly grunge straight up -- Blood Music at once wasn't quite the best follow-up in the world and yet worked much better as an album than Whirlpool, which given that it was constructed from almost as many different sessions as the first album ...

Chapterhouse CD discography Although there is nothing here that has not been released before, Unpiecing the Jigsaw still sits in your player, rejoicing in its status as the very last word (at least so far) in detailing just how much we owe the Velvet Underground. Drawn largely from the VU tributes that the Imaginary label released back in the 1990s, this generously stacked four-disc set rounds up no less than 31 classic remakes from as far afield as Nirvana, the Bunnymen, Buffalo Tom, Swervedriver, Fatima Mansions, and James. The track listing alone is a snapshot of the alternative scene of the early- to mid-'90s, and if too many of these bands seem to have been forgotten by modern history, then that's just one more reason why this set is so essential. The Velvets have never lacked for admirers; David Bowie and Brian Epstein were singing their praises before the first album was even released, and the punks of the 1970s barely dared go on-stage ...
