Unreleased-but-actually-rather-good song: Underachiever
This is a song we recorded in the autumn of 1992, as a demo, called Underachiever. People who heard all our early stuff said it was our best song, but it was never released as a record. It’s very fast, very jangly, very trumpet-led, very full-on-kitchen-sink, so if you liked Young and Like Water then you will probably like this. The quality of this MP3 is a bit tape-of-a-tape but, hey, you’re getting it for free. Recorded at West Orange in Preston, this has brilliant, brilliant drumming from a fella called Rob who only played on this one session for us, with trumpets and very nice piano by Karen Lumb from Timperley (yes, Timperley). It’s two minutes and 10 seconds long, like all the best songs are.
Anyway, enjoy Underachiever here.

this is all quite well and good, but when is someone gonna re-release all your stuff? having just found this site (i don’t know how i’ve missed it, because i too google pastel collision every once in a while), i’m sure the information is somewhere on here, but until i find it…are there any plans to release this music in any format that isn’t just an mp3? i’ve been hoping for the past couple of years…

Hi Matthew – Well our friends from Plasticina records in Florida/Peru seem very keen indeed to do this, so I hope it will happen. Of course, some of it is down to me to find master tapes etc. And wouldn’t you want a couple of sparkling new songs on there too? Give me a kick up the backside every couple of weeks and we’ll see what we can come up with. Where did you first hear of us?
