About the Incinerators
Then . . .
The Incinerators formed in 1987, promising to "take away the bad taste of banality in today's popular sounds."
Big hair was popular in the 80s. Daz had big hair for a time - the other Incinerators had big hats.
The Spread Eagle packed in punters for the Sunday lunchtime Incinerators gigs - many people ensnared by the promise of "free Yorkshire Puddings".
Steve sang "Pass the whisky, pass the Thunderbird wine", and in those carefree days none of us would have thought about the number of alcoholic units involved in such a transaction.
Now . . .
The Incinerators reformed in 2006 - in the studio, and for one reunion gig.
It was Darren's idea to record the songs - only a few of them existing in any real kind of form, and then only on mouldering cassette tape.
The Incinerators CD was carefully created through many hours on Sunday afternoons and weekday evenings throughout 2006.
On 28 August 2006, at the Tap & Spile in York, friends and fans met again for the first time in years. Many of us said that these were still some of the best songs we'd heard. Even 20 years on. How we'd missed hearing them.
So, here they are, available to buy on CD. Twelve songs - some familiar, some less familiar. Order yours here, on this new-fangled internet thing.
