The Solarflares

The Solarflares came out of the ashes of The Prisoners, a great '80's Medway band that shared many a stage (and a record) with Thee Milkshakes. Graham Day and Allan Crockford, from The Prisoners, joined with with drummer Wolf Howard (The Prime Movers and The Dagger Men) to record their first two albums and then added an organist, Parsley, in 2002. They recorded two full albums after that before calling it quits in 2003 after the release of "Laughing Sons" perhaps their best album of them all. There's still plenty of information available at their website and the forums seem to be quite active. Wolf and Graham continue on with Billy Childish in The Buff Medways, Allan is in The Stabilizers and Parsley was in The Bristols.
Oh, and The Solarflares music? Much like The Buff Medways, they pepper the Medway garage sound with touches of psychedelia and heavier '60's bands like Cream or The Who but they never get bogged down in the excesses that you may associate with those genres. Just have a listen and see what you think.
