Reviews:
"Pinch me it's that Voice!! It's that coolest of music!! The Obscure give you back all those bedroom moments when you thought you were Robert Smith. When you pined to the mirror to "Charlotte Sometimes" when you prowled and rolled on your bed with your girl or boy to "Love Cats" and when you got ready for the weekend to "Friday I'm in Love".
Paul Carrera (Oxford Music Reviewer)
The Park Peterborough Friday 9th February 2001 Boys Don't Cry. So it must be down to the smoke machines and eye liner. But it was hard not to shed a tear in a nostalgia-packed '80s compendium of music by three top bands upstairs at The Park.
Currently de rigeur with media-types the '80s are portrayed as a naff decade best forgotten. But these bands showed that it was not all coiffured hair white vests and double-claps performed by model-marying Brummies and future EastEnders bit-part players.
Oxford's Obs-Cure kicked off proceedings banging out their base-driven tunes such as A Forest Love Cats and Killing An Arab, with an under-fed lead singer (Robert Smith on a F-plan diet) pouting away to a delighted crowd.
A cracking night proved the '80s wasn't half as bad as those TV nostalgia-fests would have you believe. Don't just watch others doing it. Re-live it yourself in style with more nights like this.
