These Animal Men

The British band These Animal Males were quickly tossed in to the “new wave of new wave” revolution, a music scene created mainly from the U.K. press to greatly help publicize several youthful pop-punk revivalists in Britain circa 1994. Created in 1993 in Brighton, Britain, These Animal Males wasted virtually no time in surprising the people. The group’s 1st single, “Speeed Ruler,” was a high-octane tribute to amphetamines; the cover actually showed a plate of dubious white natural powder and several straws. Made up of Julian Hewings (vocals, acoustic guitar), Patrick Murray (bass), Boag (acoustic guitar, vocals), and Stevie Hussey (drums), These Pet Males capitalized on common tabloid rumors from the band comprising drug-addicted bad guys. The prohibited “Speeed Ruler” even arrived them in the legendary The surface of the Pops present. Nevertheless, when These Pet Guys released their debut record, (Seriously Sign up for) The Great Society, Oasis got just unleashed Certainly Maybe right into a stagnant rock and roll & roll marketplace searching for another Big Thing following the loss of life of Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain. Oasis brought electric guitar pop back again onto the United kingdom charts and demonstrated the globe that Britain was worth hearing once again. The “brand-new wave of brand-new wave” motion was still left in the dirt, taking These Pet Guys and their sordid stories of medicines, booze, and masturbation with them. The group documented another full-length, Incident & Emergency, and split up silently in 1997. Hewings and Boag reunited in Mo Solid Platinum.
