Fretblanket
Fretblanket are a Power pop band from Stourbridge, England.Fretblanket have had more success in the United States than in their native Britain, which the band put down to the attitude of the British music press. They were described as 'one of the first British groups to reflect the worldwide influence of Nirvana's Nevermind', although Ride, The Wedding Present, and Swervedriver have also been identified as influences.The band signed to Polygram in 1993 and released their debut album, Junkfuel a year later. They had a fairly successful hit in 1997 with the song "Into the Ocean". The video for that song received a short lived life in regular rotation on MTV that same year, and at the time was the highest- rated video ever on MTV's "12 Angry Viewers". The same year saw the release of second album Home Truths From Abroad.
