Description

Kitchens of Distinction were formed in London in 1986 and started and ended their career with a Single of the Week in the UK music press. In between they put out four albums and won the hearts and minds of a generation. Hit singles generally eluded them (the band's third single 'The 3rd Time We Opened The Capsule' did however make it into the 'NME Writers 100 Best Indie Singles Ever' list in 1992) but they fared better in the US with 'Drive That Fast' hitting number one on the college radio charts over there. A compact trio comprising of Patrick Fitzgerald (Vocals, Bass), Julian Swales (Guitars) and Dan Goodwin (Drums, Percussion) they were known for their swirling maelstrom of guitar effects - coined in the press as like being a 'sonic cathedral' - and Patrick's introspective and unabashed lyrics that often dealt with his own homosexuality. They were tagged with the genre 'shoegaze' (UK) and 'dreampop' (US) although, like many of their peers similarly defined, they never felt comfortable with either term.
