dallas
About:  "Formed in 1992, when Stereolab's debut hit the streets, dallas share many qualities with those Franco-English purveyors of avant-garde Euro-pop. Isolated from Western influence until 1991, this Baltic band developed their own blend of decade-spanning pure pop, rooted in the erstwhile movements of twist, new wave, krautrock, and the early-90's Manchester scene. Borrowing from the innovations of Can, the Smiths, and My Bloody Valentine, dallas proves to be a contender for one of the best underground albums released in 1999. Tracks like "Six for Fix" and "Raj Kapoor" are just one crafty remix away from becoming club classics."--Lucas Hilbert, Amazon.com Categories:  Ambient, Electronica, Indie, Pop, Rock, Various, World Music eMail:  http://www.ukscreen.com/contact/dallas WWW:  http://www.ukscreen.com/band/dallas Address:  Estonia Manager:  High Park
