gEt ReAl PlEaSuRe. A bIt AbOuT DaISy cHAiNsAw :D

DAISY CHAINSAW.
There dead and gone.


I love this review of the band (after they split) its written by the ledgendary 'mick mercer'

"They were like a Punk and Goth band combined, with some indie and grunge elements, which made perfect sense during the early 90's, and they had a massive commercial streak buried intrinsically inside every violently energetic or claustrophobically moody song. They were by far and away the best live band I ever saw, and also the one band who could have been massive internationally, but fucked it all up by making their debut album all but impenetrable, when "Love Your Money" made an immediate impact as a single, and they had other songs which could have been even bigger. They should have taken over from Nirvana as the noisiest band around who had charisma, commercial possibilities and were never likely to be toned down. Instead they went weird. [Katie Jane] would turn up at gigs wearing a blanket. She is unusual. In fact she looked like she could have come straight out of the pages of Sandman, if anyone's into comics." ~ Mick Mercer, Photographer
