#51. CHUMBAWAMBA Part I: The Musical Influence of Cornflakes
Manage episode 403432602 series 2862277
(Okay FINE we'll tell the actual story of Chumbawamba and not a bunch of obscure noisy punk bands you've never heard of!)
Before they were pop superstars, they were a misbegotten collection of misfits from the post-industrial wasteland of Northern England. They lived collectively in a dilapidated squat house, sharing all food and money (and, occasionally, each other's bodies). They agitated for revolution and made allies with striking coal miners. And slowly but surely, they came to realize they were made for better things than the insular punk scene which had given them birth.
This is the story of the nascent days of Chumbawamba; a band even more beautifully ridiculous than their name suggests.
