Cast - Crap not Crap?

[Cloo]

One great song called 'History', the rest was shite.

I liked walkaway

 

[stupid dogbot]

discussion of music should always be carried out from a lofty height, imo.

Right.

I saw Power with the Las in about 1991 in the Glasgow Plaza. He was an arrogant twat, and clearly thought himself the star of the band. (The support band on the day, the Milltown Brothers, were much better).

Saw Cast in Brighton & the support band The Long Pigs blew them away too. But i did like a couple of their songs.

The LongPigs were great.

The whole point of Cast was that they were neither crap nor not crap - the were fair to middling, average, pleasant-ish, bland.........

The lead singer always had a face you wanted to punch though....reminds me of a friend at the time saying 'Every time I see him singing his little Scouse heart out, I want to punch his little Scouse lights out.....'.

Nice article about Walkaway here, about 15 years ago it inspired me to quit a job that was slowly killing me so this one has a special place in my heart

‘I often see fans crying or snogging to it’: Cast on how they made Walkaway

‘It was used as the soundtrack when the England football team were knocked out of Euro 96. The nation wept, Walkaway was the song – and I missed the whole thing’

Cast. Well I’d completely forgotten about them they were bland as fuck. It’s a crap

No need. It’s axiomatic. Crap. 90s indie dross.

Cast were a bit crap. As xenon says there was a lot of it about.
