Mighty Mighty were an indie band formed in Birmingham, England in the mid-1980s. ==History== Showing influences from Postcard Records bands such as Orange Juice, they came to prominence when featured on the ''NMEs ''C86'' compilation, at around the same time that they released their debut single "Everybody Knows The Monkey". This was soon followed by a 12" single, "Is There Anyone Out There?", before the band signed to Chapter 22 Records, releasing a string of well-received singles and the album ''Sharks'' in 1988. With their brand of indie pop giving way to American influenced rock and shoegazing, they split in 1988. Continuing interest in the band saw the reissue of ''Sharks'' in 2000, the release of a compilation album of BBC session tracks in 2001, and two compilations of singles and unreleased tracks in 2000 and 2001. They reformed for the Indietracks music festival in 2009. They played Popfest Berlin in 2010, followed by Firestation Records of Berlin issuing their 'lost second album', ''The Betamax Tapes'', on vinyl and CD, 25 years after it was recorded, in 2012. In 2013 Cherry Red Records released a major double CD compilation entitled ''Pop Can - the Definitive Collection 1986-88'' which collects most of the band's released material, namely all their singles, B-sides and EP tracks, alongside several tracks from their only album released during their career, ''Sharks'', and tracks from ''The Betamax Tapes''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mighty Mighty」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
