Cashier No. 9


It's no lie that some of the best British bands who made seminal records in the last twenty years were high off their skulls on drugs. When discussing Primal Scream and The Stone Roses, I imagine a hefty dose of E, a handful of joints and a smidgen of psychedelic's would have just about done the job.

Not wanting to pin-point anyone as junkie or even a drug taker for that matter, I would not claim that the above substances had anything to do with Cashier No. 9's swelling technicolour outcome. With that in mind, it sounds like this Belfast four-piece were more susceptible when under the influence of The Byrds and and The Beach Boys perfected pop. However, Brown and Gillespie have definitely had their part to play...
