I continue going through French tapes. I am hoping to find information about bands that are clearly forgotten and no one mentions anymore. Bands that had perhaps one or a handful of songs released and their footprint on the internet is non-existent. Hoping that people that were in these bands would get in touch. Or people that knew them. What I want to know? Well, band members would be good. If they recorded more songs. That sort of thing.
The only detail I know is that they were French.
Maybe you can help me?
This time I want to find our more about a band called The Through Corners. The only thing I know is that they recorded a song called “Healthclubs Hyprocrisy” sometime in the early 90s. This song would end up on a compilation tape called “Teeny Poppers” (SHOUBIDOUWA 01) that came out on the Anorak Records label from Limoges, France.
I’ve written a bit about this tape in the past as I have featured many bands that appear in it. Bands that are more known of course like The Almanacs, The Penelopes, Budgie Jacket, Hope, The Kensingtons and more. In one interview I did in the past with Fabien from Anorak Records he did say the band hailed from France though.
As far as I know the tape didn’t include any information about the bands. So that’s not very helpful.
In any case the song is quite nice, upbeat, and makes me wonder if they had a demo tape recorded. I’d love to listen to it.
