MP3: Greenship - Perfect Smile / Place To Hide
As you might have guessed, information and pictures for this band have been kind of hard to find. I did think of putting up a picture of The Indafels, the new band fronted by Greenship singer Bnann, but then I realised that they're a bit rubbish. So anyway this was as far as I know the first and only release from Greenship, who were apparently caught up in the post-Britpop signing mania but then failed to release anything. This debut single came out on the now defunct Camp Fabulous back in the hazy days of June 1998 as a CD with a limited edition of 500. I don't honestly remember them, but as I said before the singer, Bnann, is now the vocalist for The Infadels, and has also ghost written for a number of dance acts. He's also half of Sumsonic Records' Darko & Bnann. Lovely. For what's its worth these songs are pretty great, very late nineties but definitely some potential there, so its a shame Bnann's new band sound so different. But to gain myself some good karma, feel free to check out their website or myspace page. Enjoy.

i so like that single...
A shame they never released anything else.
I was going to post that exact same post with the exact same sentiments, Greenship were an excellent live band in the late 90s and were a bit early with that whole Buckleyesque thing that caught on maybe a couple of years later.
Oh well...............

Have you ever seen the Infadels live?
I'm guessing not. It's the only way I can forgive such an ill-informed comment.
You should have heard the rest of the material they did! Then again, I did play drums for Greenship!
You cheeky sod!
yeah - that band were shit hot. but then again - i did take drugs/play bass for them ;-)
fillibrooke rd to meeson massive. dem wot took part in da journey big up yourselves. see u on da otherside.
If Bnaan, Herb, Tricks or Jonni actually get to read this, there are still Greenship fans who would like to hear some of the old stuff, even if it's just rehearsal room recordings/bootlegs - get it done, people!
;-p
