Dog Eat Dog were main support at the first gig I went to in 1994, and they had the place bouncing. I certainly didn't know anything else by them and was surprised to see this success in 1996.
As for Technohead, I'm pained to have this one revived. I did like their brief Tricky Disco persona though.
