Fetchin' Bones came roaring out of North Carolina in 1983, a cross-genre rock band that never sat still long enough to be filed away, with Hope Nicholls in the lineup. They made four studio albums, but the records were only half the story: the stage was where they earned their name, and tours opening for R.E.M., the B-52s, X and the Red Hot Chili Peppers put that frenzy in front of plenty of fresh faces.
Galaxy 500, from 1987, gave the world "Stray", and Monster followed in 1989 with "Love Crushing", with DB Recs as their label. By 1990 it was over, and the critics who caught up with them later were left grumbling that they should have been a whole lot bigger than they ever got.
