Th'Faith Healers, Quickspace

"Quickspace happy song, number one"

Who?
Remember Camden Lurch? Oh, you must. It lasted for roughly fifteen minutes back at the turn of the last decade, the gap between reading Thrills and making it to the Gig Guide, if memory serves. Th'Faith healers - along with Silverfish - were the only real members of any such scene, and encouraged a mad army of fans to leap about with record covers on their heads. After the band split, some of them reformed as Quickspace Supersport, and eventually acted like the BBC and mislaid the Supersport.

Essential?
Gorgeous Blue Flower will tell you all you need to know about Th'Faith Healers - a mix of beauty and power. Quickspace's debut ep is a good place to start with them.

In a nutshell, then:
Shouting woman exits. Music layers up and over in response.

Never mind the music, give us trivia:
Once played a secret gig under the 'mystery' name Gorgeous Blue Flowers. They fooled absolutely nobody. They were fucking awesome.
