History of Scree (serialisation)

We've decided to slowly serialise this superb piece of prose by Mr Stuart Macaroni of top 100 something fame......

History of Scree

By Stuart Macaroni (of top 100 fame….)

I was first alerted to Scree in the early ‘90’s by there seminal ‘Gnome Alive’ EP. The unique pop hook onto a progressive bass line really built upon work by Scritti Politti and Belious Some. Taking that mid eighties sound and moving it into the 90’s. What struck however was how they were able to move that initial pop sound and shift into other influences such as rock and psychedelia.
