Lots of this vibe in "the joshua tree." Lots.
Got this from eBay in 2024 for a good price from a seller named chromatic459, I liked the colour palette, photo and font. I’d like to get a band poster for the Bunnymen in the future, just trying to snag one for a good price. Hope you fellow fans enjoy seeing this too 🖼️
Here we are (The Rightovers) doing “The Puppet.” A personal favorite from Songs to Learn and Sing.
What post 2000s bands are there that you would say has a similar style/sound to echo?
If anyone happens to be in the San Diego area, my band The Rightovers is playing a Bunnymen cover set TONIGHT at the Soda Bar Halloween thing. Our set is:
Rescue The Puppet Do it Clean Bring on the Dancing Horses My Kingdom Killing Moon Lips Like Sugar
We’ll be filming it too.
found out about this track by another new wave adjacent artist, anthony moore (slapp happy, henry cow, wrote for pink floyd etc) which features Ian on vocals, it's pretty great! thought fellow echo and the bunnymen fans might be into or appreciate its existence:

I picked up a copy of Reverberation at a local junk shop for a couple of bucks. When it first came out, I picked up a cassette and lost it at some point between various moves. When this came out, I liked it. Even though it was the same band name, I viewed it as a band going in a different direction. I know it gets a ton of hate but it’s definitely a chill vibe recording. I was under the impression that the album was buried but noticed that it’s on Spotify.
Given it’s been like 30+ years since its release, what are your thoughts on this album? Is it something you’d revisit or just mark up to a move that didn’t work out?
Grew up listening to Echo and the Bunneymen with my father, over the past two years the are my most listened to artists by a landslide. I’ve listened to everything of theirs on Apple music a million times through. I will get some hate for ranking The Killing Moon 9th but I truly don’t believe its one of their absolute best songs.
10: Rust 9: The Killing Moon 8: Crystal Days 7: The Back of Love 6: Seven Seas 5: Never Stop 4: Silver 3: Rescue 2: The Cutter 1: My Kingdom (live in London)
I was wondering if you had something to suggest, almost usable in a """disco""" contest, that can be danced on
the version of pictures on my wall from crocodiles on spotify is the single version and not the album one. i checked youtube and that's not the case! i still do love the single version though, probably more than the akbum one
