GRIMETIME - DISCOGS

One mighty album (“Spirit Of Disgust”) and three cantankerous singles all released in 1993 and then … gone! That’s Shendy on vocals (Cravats, DCL, The Very Things, Anzahlung), with cool Jules to his right (English Subtitles, Kill Ugly Pop, Gorp, Naked Ruby) and my sleuthing reveals Andy Gordon on bass, Draza on drums, Lorg on synth and Paul Jakes (Gasrattle, Kill Ugly Pop) on guitar.
