Ned's Atomic Dustbin - God Fodder (1991)
Quite a number of you will probably know Ned's Atomic Dustbin, but just in case you don't... The Ned's bring you pure power-pop as only the ninetees could deliver. God Fodder is their debut album, and the band members were only 17 or 18 years old when it came out. Apparently they got slagged off a lot at the time, I read often because of their ridiculous image (ah yes, that's it: "You look like a bum... You look like a goddamn girl.") - but luckily they didn't care the least and just made really good music with a super positive vibe to it. They're quite unique in that they use two bass player: one for the typical undercurrent, and another for extra melody. This is done really well, as the bass lines are kept very neatly apart. Great music, a 90s classic alternative rock album! Their later work is supposed to be even better, but unfortunately I can't tell you whether that's true or not."Ned" is a derogatory Scottish term for a townie. There is some overlap with terms used in England, such as those listed as synonyms in , all with similar meaning, although some of these have a racist connection (esp. "", since it referred to Romanys) which may not be intended in use. The terms "schemy" and "casual" were used in Scotland in the early 1990s, although the first could apply to any age, and the second normally to football thugs.
By the way, this album reminds me of another album I've been looking for lately: Eat and their debut album Sell Me A God. So, if any of you should have this album, please let me know, as it's another great 90s alt rock album.

I thought they got their name from a Monty Python sketch?
Oh, I haven't got a clue... I wonder, though, 't would be quite neat.
ass it happens i just downloaded all monty pythons flying circus sketches and i do not believe there is one with that title butt i'll have a look once i'm done slaving!
It was a Goon Show episode title.
Ned Seagoon was the character played by Harry Secombe.
I've never heard of the Goon Show. It's a comedy series, I assume?
don't know the Goon show either but it sure isn't a python title!
Nothing's "up, like, you know" except my morning mourning wood would ya!, it's 04:10 now (please see my first post of the b-log, that one reefers to my byatch). As for the p'thoelen'!!-arse-word, I am possessed by the vates irritabilis aka daimon orgoglio. And semen though I'd like to swallow the pluralis majestatis, the only pluralis I am led by is not a "majestatis" but a "psychotis".
Good luck, Telemachos!
