The Smiths - How Soon is Now
The Smiths est le nom d'un groupe de rock britannique, créé en 1982 et séparé en 1987. C'était un quatuor musical de Manchester fondé autour de Johnny Marr (né le 31 octobre 1963) et de Steven Patrick Morrissey (né le 22 mai 1959), chanteur et parolier.
« L'image des Smiths est si forte qu'elle déclenche l'adoration totale comme la haine la plus féroce » Morrissey (1984)
Histoire du groupe
Morrissey est fan d'Oscar Wilde, d'Elvis Presley et de James Dean, des chanteuses pop britanniques des années 1960 (Sandie Shaw, Cilla Black, Dusty Springfield) et dans son adolescence, président du fan club des New York Dolls.
Morrissey s'improvisant chanteur, le quatuor se produit pour la première fois en public au Manchester Ritz le 4 octobre 1982. Leur premier single, Hand in Glove (de connivence) publié en mai 1983 sur le label indépendant Rough Trade, fascine le public. Il est suivi d'un autre grand succès, This Charming Man, en novembre 1983. En février 1984, leur premier album, simplement baptisé The Smiths, se vend à 300 000 exemplaires, prenant la seconde place des charts britanniques.
The Smiths incarne clairement le nouvel esprit des années 1980, méprisant les clips vidéo, les synthétiseurs et les États-Unis. Élu meilleur groupe de l'année 1984 au Royaume-Uni, et Morrissey meilleur interprète (un comble pour un autodidacte), le groupe tourne beaucoup au Royaume-Uni mais rarement en Europe (Les concerts à Paris en mai 1984, à l'Eldorado (photos) puis au Versailles, en décembre de la même année seront les seules dates françaises dans l'histoire des Smiths).
En 1985, le groupe publie un nouvel opus, Meat is Murder. Le titre "How Soon Is Now?", qui en est extrait, sera repris plus tard comme générique de la série TV Charmed. Un troisième album voit le jour en 1986, The Queen Is Dead, véritable chef-d'?uvre qui fera l'objet d'un album-hommage dix ans plus tard (The Smiths is dead, une initiative des Inrockuptibles).

Echobelly "Great Things" @Britpop Now
Live pour la BBC Four en 1995. Echobelly were a prominent Britpop band and a force in the British musical invasion of the 1990s.
They debuted in 1994 with their Everyone's Got One album. Although often compared to Blondie and influenced by Morrissey, who himself was a fan of the group, Echobelly carved out their own place with tuneful melodies that cascaded between exuberant optimism and vehement attacks against oppression, bigotry, and alienation in the modern world.
The most prominent part of Echobelly's success formula was vocalist Sonya Madan, who was also the group's primary lyricist. Born in Delhi, India, before moving to England at the age of two, Madan had an unusual background for a pop star. Her rigid upbringing made rock n' roll taboo for her as a youngster, and she didn't attend her first rock concert until she was in college.
