Here's a DVD compilation that I put together many moons ago of Elastica's TV appearances that I had gathered throughout 1995. I am ashamed to say that they were one of the last new bands that I got into (nearly 30 years ago!). I quite liked a few of the Britpop bands, they were certainly a breath of fresh air in a musical environment that favoured instantly forgettable acts that could make someone a quick buck before they moved on to another short lived money spinner. The songs of Blur, Oasis and Pulp have endured for all of that time, surely testament to quality song writing. However, it was Elastica for me all the way. Their songs were great, if not perhaps totally their own! Listen to the first album and you can tell what album was sitting on Justine's turn table at the time, be it Wire, Adam & The Ants, Buzzcocks or even The Stranglers.
Look closely on the 'Later' footage and you may spot a short critter in shorts and a Raven T-shirt!
