Actually, Ned's Atomic Dustbin was also famous for selling more t-shirts than records. Or, if not more, at least a comparable amount. They have something like 85 t-shirt designs, I think.

Well, to make sure I knew what I was talking about, I looked it up on wikipedia.
"The Neds" (as their fans referred to them) were well known for their own distinctive T-shirt designs, reportedly producing over 86 different designs within three years (1987-1990). (In 2009, Jonn Penney stated, "We're still adding designs - old habits die hard"). So, yeah. Not much to add to that ![]()

I remember hating them back when those bands were popular. And although I can't see why now, I even kind of liked EMF and Jesus Jones back then

Their fans used to piss me off more than they did.

Really? What were those like? To be honest all I remember of the band is like one radio hit and some of my friends had the tape. In my memory, Ned's and others like them seemed to fill the short gap of time between the British Pop scene and the up and coming rave scene. It's like 90s British Pop became dance music like 70s American Pop became disco..or something.
Anyway, I remember Ned's Atomic Dustbin as being highly forgettable - were they big in the UK?
