Octopus Underground

[Eoin McLove]

Does anyone else remember these Dublin rockers from the 90s. I'm reluctant to use the word funk but that was definitely an element of their sound, yet their demo,  Ostentatious Popstar Marriage, was also angular and wildly diverse and creative across its three songs. The singer was one of a kind. Her voice was so unusual, powerful and apt to turn from aggressive to gentle in a blink and always infused with super melodies.

I hoped to find a link online but no joy.

Fun fact, the photo on the cover was taken in the church in Celbridge, as if I hadn't already single handedly  put it on the global music map .
