The band was started early last year (February), but has yet to play in Norway at all (at least that's what I've heard). It is heavily guitar-based with focus on the vocals (at least concerning the song I heard this morning on the radio). It did actually sound very interesting, so you people living in London - give them a try. They was 5th in the NME rating of unsigned bands. The band consists of 2 female members on guitar, vocals and bass and 2 male members on guitar and drums. That's the info I've got about them this far, other than that the single is sold out already. - -- Yngve ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 Nov 1997 12:47:27 -0500 (EST) From: "Mark Anthony Miazga" Subject: a short list of questions (fwd) > short questions.... > > >> *Rock and Pop new releases* > >> - JULIANA HATFIELD - Please Do Not Disturb (EP) (Bar None) > > hey does this mean that Juliana was dropped by atlantic records > (who have a past history of dropping artists left and right), or is she > just doing a side project thingie and trying to get indie credibility? Apparently, Juliana and Atlantic/Mammoth parted by way of a mutual-type decision in lieu of Disney taking over the Atlantic Recording Company. She's not staying with Bar None... that's just an indie label she's using to release this ep in between major releases. Right now, she's in limbo and in search of a major label to release her next cd "God's Foot". Apparently there's some problem over who has rights to the songs from that cd, because it's already been done for a while (though Juliana's been tinkering with it for months and likes the newer songs she's writing better than the ones she had on the cd). Still, the new LP should come out in spring or summer of next year. BTW, "Please Do No Disturb" is probably the best recording I've ever heard of Juliana. It's excellent; I definitely recommend it; she's matured so much as both a singer and songwriter. - -- Mark A.

I am gonna be offline until Monday, so I will take this opportunity to begin reminding you all about the 1997 Happy Gift Project, the prospectus for which I posted a week or so ago. No matter whether you have contributed to previous Projects or not, your participation this time is eagerly solicited. And, of course, I need it by December 15.

Good Evening, everyone, including Mark: (re: Juliana Hatfield, Mammoth, and Atlantic): > > hey does this mean that Juliana was dropped by atlantic records > > (who have a past history of dropping artists left and right), or is she > > just doing a side project thingie and trying to get indie credibility? > > Apparently, Juliana and Atlantic/Mammoth parted by way of a mutual-type > decision in lieu of Disney taking over the Atlantic Recording Company.... Actually, Disney bought Mammoth (which PolyGram will market alongside Hollywood, another Disney imprint). Atlantic is still Time Warner property. Of course, I remember all the talk about PolyGram and Warner trying to unite. Someone at the time suggested the end result would be "WEAP." Indeed.
