 Miss Black America
Miss Black America are one of those bands.
Miss Black America consist of your two obligatory almost silent musical geniuses with faces obscured by hair, a drummer who is the human reincarnation of Animal from The Muppets and a frontman who might just throw something sharp and heavy at the next person who calls him a Richey Edwards wannabe.
In the midst of all the shit: the fake, tuneless, money-grubbing soft porn on Top of the Pops; the ‘Scene With No Name’ or whatever bollocks is being sold to us this week by magazines and TV programmes deficient of taste or imagination; there are bands who are worth spending your time and money on.

 miss black america - talk hard - cd review
Admittedly it doesn't smack you in the face as their previous records, but the stone roses groove bass leads into disjointed guitars, which keeps the bands pop-sensibility's.
It's wrong to compare, but what first attracted me to this band was a rock rush, the crash of a song, in an unashamedly indie way.
The lead track "Talk Hard" has a wimpy verse which catches up with itself to get to a great early 90's chorus, before breaking into a classic Brit-pop guitar solo.
