For those folk who like the unsung hero's of music Bob Mold of Husku Du , who in my mind have paved the way for Pixies, Nirvana, the Foo Fighters, Metallica, Green Day and many more plays the Globe in June 28.
The ‘Mats are definitely one of those sort of doomed, “shoulda been a contender ‘ma” type bands. Loved their stuff from the beginning till ‘pleased to meet you’.

Bob Mould definitely worth seeing live. Husker Du are/were one of my favourite bands ever, although they’re not recognisable in a mainstream sense they definitely had a big influence (in certain circles) so I never quite think of them as being underrated.

Mentioned Red on Green and I did have a bit of a re-listen to those Paisley Underground bands recently. Rain Parade in particular I liked a bit.

As you mentioned Big Black I thought I’d post Cardiff’s own answer (Slowjam): https://youtu.be/QzA19BnsdGE
