Younger Younger 28's United Kingdom
Biography
In an era full of dour landfill indie in the fallout from Britpop, YOUNGER YOUNGER 28s were the shining light in synthpop. They were a marvellous cross between two of Sheffield greatest bands, combining the catchy avant pop of THE HUMAN LEAGUE with the observational lyrical wit of PULP. Their only album Soap was a cutting tongue-in-cheek satire on class aspirations and dreams; a pastiche novelty record based around strong tunes and upbeat chimes despite the inherent darkness and despair of the subject matter.
