BOB

A cult treasure from the jangle-pop underground, BOB were one of the UK’s best-kept secrets during the late '80s and early '90s. Armed with sharp, literate songwriting and a knack for killer melodies, they channelled the awkward charm of C86, pairing wiry guitars with deceptively melancholic lyrics. Their lo-fi, homegrown ethic and relentless gigging won them a devoted following, even as mainstream success eluded them.
