Trying to think of the name an English band from the early 90s...

    They were out around the time Pearl Jam burst on the scene. They were in Metal Hammer / Kerrang as I remember interviews with them.
    They were really popular for a while. I think the lead singer played piano as well, had blonde hair.
    They had a double barrelled name, The ____ _____

    It's doing my head in trying to recall them. I can't even remember any songs but can picture the band.

    not the wildhearts or the quireboys....

    There was a fair bit of hype about them in the early days, but like a lot of other English bands of the time, you either liked them or you couldn't stand them......

    At the time I think I preferred Skin (though I don't know why)......
