Cornershop - Woman's Gotta Have It (1995)

also got the first album 'Hold On It Hurts'

I have been looking for this for sooo long, by sheer chance I checked again and it was uploaded only yesterday - both albums have long been out-of-print and this one in particular is legendary.
By ramshackle 90's indie criteria, this is better than 'When I Was Born From the 7th Time', and while there are a couple of classic Eastern jams most of it sounds like the British-Indian Pavement. edit: infact it even sounds like the Brian Jonestown Massacre in their raga moments

F*cking brill.

Along with 'Tatay' apparently on the way (eeee!) it's been a great day for British indie (real indie)

I've only heard Return to Cookie Mountain besides this so my comparison is limited. Dear Science has much smoother, glossy production and is missing a lot of the fuzz and distortion from RTCM.

And they've upped the funk quotient in their music, making Dear Science a much more upbeat and catchy record.

Easter - These Arms are Snakes

Variations on Swing - Meet Me In St. Louis

Lovely progressive/indie rock (two terms that should usually never be put together). It's like a maze of odd time sigs, tempo changes, and extremely technical guitar work, but it still retains a highly melodic, poppy sense.
