90s indie noise-pop band FURTHER to release 'Where Were You Then?' compilation
Bad Paintings is excited to announce the release of Where Were You Then?, a compilation of 13 tracks from 90s LA indie rock band Further.
Though their legacy has remained as obscure as their records, they released on Creation, Fierce Panda and numerous US labels, as well as sharing bills with everyone from the likes of Pavement, Beck, Sebadoh, Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, Royal Trux, Archers of Loaf and Codeine. Founding members the Rademaker brothers also later went on to form Beachwood Sparks and The Tyde.
Handpicked by Bad Paintings and whittled down from 60 tracks, the Where Were You Then? compilation is made up of the best of the singles, all remastered from the original vinyl. Listen to comp cut 'California Bummer' here:
Overdosing on weed, surfing and Dinosaur Jr’s "You're Living All Over Me," Further was started by four guys half outta spite and half outta their minds. Formed by The Rademaker brothers (now the driving forces behind Beachwood Sparks and The Tyde) along with drummer Kevin Fitzgerald, they recruited a young San Gabriel valley guitarist named Josh Schwartz and flat out turned down major label offers, opting to release their debut 7" Filling Station on Bongload Records (home of Beck’s Loser 12”).
For their next release, the band and good friend and filmmaker Darren J Lavett started Christmas Records. The band impressed Alan McGee with their "fuck it” attitude and signed on to the Creation Records' umbrella label, Ball Product, to issue their next LP in the UK.
The record wound up receiving acclaim from the UK press including a 9/10 review in NME as well as recording a BBC Session with the legendary John Peel.
The highlight of Further’s touring came when Lou Barlow and Sebadoh took the band out on tour just to spite Lou's ex-bandmate J Mascis. Further had a knack of exploding into Dinosaur Jr’s sonic territory, and at the time Lou believed it would get J's goat to have them out as his support act. Even when asked by the NME if he had anything to say to J Mascis, Lou smugly replied "ever heard Further?”
After splitting up, the Rademaker brothers along with Josh went on to form the now legendary bands, Beachwood Sparks and The Tyde, respectively and Kevin Fitzgerald went on to become the drummer for the Circle Jerks.
Where Were You Then? chronologically compiles the best of Further’s singles, and gives us chance to look back at a band that cared enough not to sell indie rock down the river, and didn't care enough to bring a paddle.

Framed by an ex-partner for a murder he did not commit, Tobey Marshall, a financially struggling custom-car builder and street-racer, spends two years in jail thinking about one moment. Fresh out of prison he reacquires the fastest car his workshop ever built and sold, and seeks to enter a secretive and extremely high-stakes race known as The DeLeon. His purpose; redemption, recognition from the world of racing and to solve his problems. Yet all this fades in comparison to his driving reason. Revenge. Above all, revenge.

In years with an overflow of genre specific exercises, one can’t help questioning what industrial music really means. Where is the experiment hiding, when every cover and every record look and sound more and more the same, using the same images, referring to the same literature, the same movies, arguing the same ”counter” cultural ideas, while really enforcing the same tactics of consumerism as the mainstream, in a stylized miniature.
Once in a while an artist comes along who manages to both cherish the tradition of industrial music and at the same time walk their own path, choosing their own route to truth: Experiment. With her first solo full length, released last year, Puce Mary managed to do exactly that - and now with the follow-up "Persona", she proves herself to be one of the most interesting projects around today.
"Persona" manages to balance the hyper personal universe of the artist with enough care for presentation to make it valuable for everyone to listen to, and take part in her experience. And she does that through six tracks, that each take their own place while corresponding beautifully with its neighbors. From primitive rhythmic patterns to elaborate drone pieces and pain stricken vocals. Insisting on finding new routes for the work and with a rare honesty, "Persona" holds its listener captive from start to finish.
