I got one of their compilation (alright, dammit, "Greatest Hits" CDs) from the 7 I got from signing up with BMG. I know absolutely nothing about them, not even their country of origin. Just curious... couldn't find a "Squeeze FAQ" or whatnot. OK, well, I did, but not of Squeeze the ba-- ah, this is going nowhere. Abort. Abort!!

I have researched this issue, and since after reading their bio, all I really can say still is that they're British.

They're enigmas.

The CD is okay. I totally forgot about that shucking mussles from the shell (or whatever) song. So that's cool.

I also got "The Gray Race" from Bad Religion. It comes with one of those cardboard wrappers to it, like the Everclear one with "One Hit Wonder" and so forth did. I lose those very easily. Also, there is a picture of a frightened baby on the actual jewel case. PUNK!!

I think it's "Pulling muscles from a shell"... but I could be wrong.

I the band you're thinking of is British and has been working since about 1974, I think this has a significant amount of data:

Spinner has a pretty decent database of vital stats and pithy album critiques, and I still prefer the choices made on the Alternative and Indie channels for Spinner 4.0 as opposed to the newer (and to my tastes, blander) Radio@Netscape Plus. I probably shouldn't have written that, as it is in violation of the party line of the Company.

But then, so is visiting this BBS at work.

PTX over and out.

That site is great. Where's it been all my life? The search engine is odd, but other than that, it's just what I am looking for. GNARLY!!
