FabSwingers.com forum: Great bands you’d forgotten about…

Just stumbled across the video for “Love is dead” by The Godfathers. What a great band. “‘Cause I said so!” Is a great singalong anthem. They should have been much bigger but now they’re lost in the mists of time and memory.

Rack your brains for long-forgotten bands that you used to love.

I haven’t heard much SLF to be honest apart from Suspect Device. I shall rectify this.

Check out the documentary ‘The Damned: Don’t You Wish That We Were Dead’

I thought I knew a lot about them, but it’s fascinating viewing!

(I couldn’t find it in the usual streaming services, I just googled it until I found it for free, and watched it on my iPad)

Love a bit of Bush (lolz), they have released some decent stuff in the last couple of years. Some of it is quite heavy!!!! The Kingdom is an ace album.
