Walkingseeds
Walkingseeds were an alternative rock band from Liverpool, England, formed after the Mel-o-Tones split up in 1986.
==History==
Frank Martin (vocals), Bob Parker (guitar), and John Neesam (drums) had previously worked together as the Mel-o-Tones, releasing a mini-LP and an EP on Liverpool label Probe Plus. They met while students at Liverpool art school 1982-84, as was Martin Dempsey〔Parker, Robert and Johnson, Christopher, eds. (1984) "'The Course They Couldn't Kill' Faculty of Art 1984 degree show catalogue'', Liverpool Polytechnic, Liverpool, UK〕 (ex-Yachts), also in the Mel-o-Tones. After appearing as The Corinthians for a few months, during which time they recorded a seven-track demo, they decided on a change of name to Walkingseeds, and debuted in June 1986 with the ''Know Too Much'' EP, still on Probe Plus.〔Strong, Martin C. (2003) "Walkingseeds", in ''The Great Indie Discography'', Canongate, ISBN 1-84195-335-0〕〔Larkin, Colin (1992) "Walking Seeds" in ''The Guinness Who's Who of Indie and New Wave Music'', Guinness Publishing, ISBN 0-85112-579-4, p.306〕 The band's sound was characterised as "psychedelic grunge".〔 Neesam departed and the others drafted in former Marshmallow Overcoat guitarist Barry Sutton and drummer Tony Mogan. After the "Mark Chapman" single on their own Moral Burro label, they returned to Probe Plus with their debut album, ''Skullfuck'' (the title influenced by a Grateful Dead album cover), released in late 1987.〔 The band worked with Kramer on the second album, ''Upwind of Disaster, Downwind of Atonement'', released on Glass Records in 1989. Sutton departed to join The La's and was replaced by Andy Rowan for the ''Shaved Beatnik'' EP. The band drafted in Nick Saloman (aka The Bevis Frond) and brought in Lee Webster as a replacement for Rowan. The ''Sensory Deprivation Chamber Quartet Dwarf'' mini-album followed in 1989, and was their last release for Glass. After a split single with Bevis Frond, they moved on to Paperhouse Records for their next album, ''Bad Orb, Whirling Ball'' (1990). The band continued into the mid-1990s, with Dinosaur Jr's Don Fleming joining for a time,〔 before splitting up, with Parker and Mogan forming The Del-Bloods and later White Bitch. Martin later reappeared in Batloaf's Meat Loaf parody ''Meat out of Hell'' along with Parker and Mogan. Sutton and Webster joined Froth.〔
The band recorded four sessions for John Peel's BBC Radio 1 show between 1987 and 1990.〔(Walkingseeds ) at the BBC's ''Keeping It Peel'' site〕
