I used to be in a 'band'* called the Rastaz of Mok.We filled two C90 tapes with unspeakable, unlistenable bilge that we thought was hilarious ('Roots' and 'Thought-Emetic For The People')
Eventually, we kind of split, amicably. He became 'Blondini' and I became 'Craft Fair'.
We didn't like to bother record companies or actually perform our drivel in public, because we knew, in our heart of hearts, it was shit.
*more like me and my mate Al, stoned with a 4-track cassette portastudio, a Commodore Amiga with 4-track sampling/sequencing software Octamed, and various shitty 80s instruments from Cash Converters

I was in a band called PLOP.We never actually wrote any songs, rehearsed or bought instruments.
But it was a damn good name.
Before pulp existed, by the way.

We could revive PLOP.Re-name it PLOPP, pretend to be Scandinavian, and get away with any old bollocks.
I've still got a few instruments, if you can source a couple of blond wigs.
And a drummer.

Cool.And could we have musical differences?
For a while now I've been waiting for someone to ask me why I split with my daughter's mum, so I can say we split up because of musical differences.

Of course.It wouldn't work without musical differences.
And if I'm involved, it'll inevitably degenerate into a howling, swirling, FX-drenched soup of inchoate wibbling noise with shouting over the top, so the musical differences will evolve perfectly naturally.
