For Better For Worse, For Richer For Poorer...

David Cronenburg's Wife
Genre: Other / New Wave
From: London, United Kingdom

Thanks to the brilliant blog Burning World for turning me onto the brilliantly named David Cronenberg's Wife from good old London town.

Imagine the House of Love if Guy Chadwick took himself less seriously ('My Best Friends Going Out With A Girl I Like'), The Triffids with a sarcastic English twist ('You Can't Keep Doing What You Do') or the bastard child of Mark E Smith and Dan Treacey ('Runaway Pram') and you're part of the way to describing the sheer genius of David Cronenburg's wife.

Want another reason to check them out? The NME dismissed them as having a rubbish name and probably being an East Anglian goth band. The NME dismissing you is a sure sign of quality.
