You would think that, by now, we’d long run out of ’80s British indie-pop bands to write about. But you’d be wrong! In fact, if it were to all go down tomorrow, and we had to live in the mountains to stave off toxic fallout, the sounds of jangling guitars would be bouncing off the walls for months (our emergency preparedness kit consists solely of portable Bose speakers, two iPods, and some Capri Sun packets). Today’s entry is from the Dentists, a quartet from the Medway towns that wrote many songs about dreams, and knocked out at least one great Tori Amos cover:
