The Frantic spiders were part of the short lived "Riot grrl" scene of the early Nineties along side such bands as Huggy bear and Blood sausage.An all girl band hailing from Exeter,this single was released on local label Hometown Atrocities
Intrestingly,in 2001 Hometown atrocities released a compilation of local bands from 1977-2000,one of which,Headless chickens featured a young Thom Yorke from the Radioheads ,from his time at Exeter Uni.

Zombie Zombie hail from Frenchland and make driving,Motorik,Krautrock hypno rumble and all the other words you'd associate with a band that sounds like Can.Their album"A land for Renegades is inspired by the film "Punishment park" (havent seen it,but might now).
Arpegiators wrestle each other for control of the wheel whilst strange,deformed Banshees howl at each other in the desert,just out of sight of the headlights.
