Label GB

Demon is a UK 80s New Wave label that was founded by Elvis Costello, Andrew Lauder, and the company behind the label in 1980. In 1998, the label was acquired by Music Collection International and merged with its Westside Records operation. Today, Demon forms part of the Demon Music Group Ltd.

Menswear were a much-hyped mid-'90s Britpop group founded in 1994 in Camden Town, London and disbanded in 1998. They infamously received a great deal of press and record label interest before recording a single note.

The original members of *Menswear* included Johnny Dean on vocals, backing vocals, and percussion; Simon White on electric guitar and backing vocals; Chris Gentry on electric and acoustic guitars; Stuart Black on bass and acoustic guitar; and Matt Everitt on drums and percussion.

The group's ballyhooed debut album "Nuisance" was released in 1995. The album yielded five singles - "I'll Manage Somehow", "Sleeping In", "Daydreamer", "Stardust", and "Being Brave" - all with multiple b-sides. After one non-album single, "We Love You", was issued in 1996, the mostly-forgotten second album, "*Hay Tiempo!", was released only in Japan in 1998.

In 2013, Johnny Dean reconvened the group with all new members and they released the single "Crash '14," a rerecording of an old *Menswear* song. The group continues to tour.

Box Sets

No band epitomised Britpop more than Menswear. Singer Johnny Dean, guitarists Chris Gentry and Simon White, bassist Stuart Black and drummer Matt Everitt formed in London in mid 1994, playing a handful of gigs that prompted a label bidding war and countless magazine covers.

They delivered a string of UK Top 20 singles: ‘I’ll Manage Somehow’, ‘Sleeping In’, ‘Stardust’, ‘Being Brave’ and the undeniable Britpop classic ‘Daydreamer’. While the speed of their success surprised some; their style, attitude and riotous live shows defined the times and they became one of the most popular bands of 1995.

This boxset features the singles from their debut album, Nuisance. A-sides and B-sides of the bands five 7” singles pressed on coloured vinyl with original iconic artwork covers and printed inner sleeve. The boxset comes with a Menswear logo sticker, one of five postcards and a signed photo
