1. When and how did you first hear about Coast?
Serendipity circa 2000. I used to buy and re-sell cds on Ebay for about 6 years. 'Now That You Know Me' was hidden amongst awful Pop and Hip Hop singles in one of the very first mystery boxes that I'd ever bought. I liked the cover enough to listen to it.
2. How many singles and albums did you end up owning?
To my knowledge, Coast only put out one album in the mid-90s. I own 5 singles (one single short of their total output), and no album.
3. What other bands do you recommend, that's similiar to Coast.
If one likes Oasis, Supergrass, Sloan, Superdrag, Bends-era Radiohead, Blur, or the Charlatans, they might find something to like about this band.
Good question. It's really hard to find any information on this band. Apart from having a very common moniker, they were a mere blip on the British indie music scene. Anyone with old issues of NME probably knows just a little more than I do.
