Radial Spangle

Radial Spangle

Radial Spangle was an indie rock band from Norman, Oklahoma, United States, that released two albums in the 1990s.

The band was formed in 1991 by Alan Laird (vocals, guitar), April Tippens (bass guitar), and former Mercury Rev drummer Richard English.Strong, Martin C. (1999) "The Great Alternative & Indie Discography", Canongate, ISBN 0-86241-913-1] Mills, Fred " [http://www.trouserpress.com/entry.php?a=radial_spangle Radial Spangle] ", Trouser Press] The band members were friends of Mercury Rev, whose David Fridmann engineered their debut album, "Ice Cream Headache", released in 1993 on the Mint Tea label. The album featured boy/girl vocal harmonies and an array of guitar effects.Scaruffi, Piero, " [http://www.scaruffi.com/vol5/radialsp.html Radial Spangle] ", "The History of Rock Music"] Shortly after the album was released, English was replaced by Kelsey Kennedy. After a further single, "Raze", on Mint Tea, the band signed to Beggars Banquet Records, who issued the "Birthday" EP (which included the three tracks recorded for a session for John Peel's BBC Radio 1 show in July) in late 1993, and the band's second album, "Syrup Macrame", again with Fridmann at the controls, in August 1994. The band split up in late 1994.

Laird later formed The Charm Pops, who released a debut album in 1998.
