Possibly lacking some Carter USM if you're on a nostalgia trip.

I'd also say check out some Mogwai

[eggwhite.livejournal.com]

I have both Mogwai and Slowdive (who they remind me of) in my MP3 collection. Obviously this means that I am pretentious, as this is a natural side-effect of listening to Mogwai.

As for Carter USM, you're right! I shall have to get hold of some... I've seen them live but have none of their stuff to listen to!

[samaritan1975.livejournal.com]

It always makes me happy to see Slowdive (or, really, any shoegazing) on somebody's playlist. :)

[lawrencegillies.livejournal.com]

They have a greatest hits out at the moment or soon called "You Fat Bastard" apparently.

I only thought of them as I read an article in the Guardian about bands who were highly sussessful but not all that influential (you don't say something sounds "carter-esque" or do you?) Another example would be Dave Dee, Beaky, Mick and Titch, (or whatever it was) who spent more time in the charts during the 60's than the Beatles. Good article.
