It was a crime that 18th Dye didn’t go ballistic in the early 90’s. Their live shows were very VERY loud and they looked like the coolest mf’ers that ever stomped over to London via Berlin and Denmark. Two boys and a girl made a dense and melodic white noise that used to take my breath away in tiny back-room clubs in Camden. Their two albums, Tribute To A Bus and Done are still played at Spellcnut Towers (when we need that Sonic Youth thrill but with some melody). Anyway, ten years after splitting up they’re back to a play a festival in Sweden. Fingers crossed for a some London dates.
