    #149 / 90s Guitar Bands - Wang No. 30

    Joining us for our 'Hot Take' Special are Mike and Dave, and we've all come armed with a collection of music opinions that are guaranteed to divide listeners. Some of them we genuinely believe. Some of them we're going to have to defend whether we believe them or not! Over the next hour we're arguing over questions like: Is Britpop actually better than grunge? Was Oasis destined for greatness without The Beatles? Is Screamadelica overrated? Were Coldplay ever actually good? And does modern music have anything on the 90s? The rules are simple. One person throws out a hot take, everyone else decides whether they agree or disagree, and then the debate begins! So grab a brew, let us know in the comments which opinions you agree with, and which ones are completely ridiculous! Stupid & Contagious STORE https://stupid-contagious-podcast.myshopify.com Welcome to The Stupid And Contagious podcast, a podcast focused on bringing you interviews with the bands that defined a generation! That generation grew up in the 90s with the Grebo bands (Senseless Things, PWEI, Neds Atomic Dustbin, Mega City Four, The Wonderstuff and many more) on the UK side of the pond and quickly joined by the grunge bands (Nirvana, Mudhoney, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden and many more) on the US side of the pond. We are not limiting ourselves to these genres though, we will chart the guitar bands from all genres throughout the decade that was the 1990s.

    #148 / 90s Guitar Bands - Vent 414

    Thirty years ago, Vent 414 arrived with one incredible album and then disappeared almost as quickly as they came. Formed from the ashes of The Wonder Stuff and featuring Miles Hunt, Morgan Nicholls and Pete Howard, they left behind a record that became a cult favourite for fans of 90s alternative rock. Now, three decades later, they're back! In episode 148 Miles and Morgan join us to talk about how an unexpected studio session turned into a brand new Vent 414 album, what it was like reconnecting after 30 years, working with legendary producer Steve Albini on the original record, and why touring has become harder than ever in 2026. We also dive into the stories behind some of the standout tracks from the new album, including the deeply moving "Lucinda", and find out whether this long-awaited reunion is just the beginning of Vent 414's second chapter. This is Miles Hunt and Morgan Nicholls of Vent 414, enjoy!

    #147 / 90s Guitar Bands - Flamingoes

    This week we're shining a light on one of Britpop's great hidden gems: Flamingoes! If you were digging through the pages of NME and Melody Maker in the mid-90s, you'll probably remember them. If not, you're in for a treat! They rubbed shoulders with the New Wave of New Wave scene, and released a string of brilliant singles before putting out their cult classic album, Plastic Jewels. Joining us today is James Cook, It's a fascinating conversation about music, creativity, luck, and what it was really like trying to make it during one of the most exciting periods in British guitar music. So sit back, turn it up, and enjoy our conversation with James Cook from Flamingoes!

    #146 / 90s Guitar Bands - Tabitha Zu

    In episode 146 we dive deep into the wild world of the early 90s UK underground scene with Tabitha Zu! Melanie and John join us to talk about chaotic DIY touring, sleeping on floors, playing over 150 gigs in a year, muddy festivals, VHS archives, and the surreal experience of opening for Nirvana during the legendary Rollercoaster tour era. We also get into Nottingham’s underground music scene, goth clubs, shoegaze, crusties, four-track recordings, and what it was really like trying to survive as an indie band before the internet existed. Plus after more than 30 years Tabitha Zu are finally revisiting and releasing music that was never properly finished back in the day!

    It's a wang week so who's up for a game of Pop or Plop? Will Smith, TLC, Spin Doctors, Lighthouse Family, Mariah Carey, Five, Saint Etienne… POP or complete PLOP? One of us is recording from Seoul, South Korea… one of us defends Will Smith unironically… and somebody absolutely loses their mind over Spin Doctors!

    #144 / 90s Guitar Bands - A

    It's episode 144 & Incase you hadn't heard A are back with a new album! Today’s guest is one of the great survivors of British rock music. From fronting late-90s alt-rock band A to producing massive records for bands like McFly, Jason Perry has lived every side of the music industry, the highs, the crashes, the reinventions, and the comebacks. In this episode, Jason tells unbelievable stories from the road: getting dropped before his biggest hit, flying by helicopter straight from Top Of The Pops to a gig in Plymouth, touring with Faith No More, the reality of life after fame, and how losing everything forced him to rebuild from scratch. We also dive deep into creativity and how the new A album became the most honest record he’s ever made!

    #143 / 90s Guitar Bands - Scorpio Rising

    From the psychedelic shadows of the late 80s to touring alongside bands like The Smashing Pumpkins, Scorpio Rising were one of those bands that seemed destined for something massive until the music industry, bad timing, and real life got in the way! In episode 143 we talk about major label deals, shoegaze and grunge, Reading Festival, living on the dole in Manchester, recording under churches, setting amps on fire in the studio, and what happens when the dream suddenly disappears? It’s about loss, survival, reinvention, and finding meaning after the chaos. From cleaning bins after playing huge festivals… to living on a houseboat on a hidden island… to rediscovering music decades later through Sonic Gypsy! This is Mickey Banks from Scorpio Rising!

    In episode 142 we’re joined by Phil Ward better known as The Albino Priest from Lo Fidelity Allstars! A band that somehow went from their very first gig… straight to getting signed to Skint, landing on the cover of the music press, and suddenly finding themselves in the middle of the madness that was the late 90s! We get into everything, the chaotic early days, what it was really like being part of that Skint Records era, blowing up in America, and the reality behind the highs and lows of the music industry. It’s funny, it’s honest, and at times… completely ridiculous. So sit back, and enjoy the wild story of Lo Fidelity Allstars!
