Not Forgotten: They Might Be Giants – John Henry
With the Two Johns having forged an enduring career releasing a series of albums that appeal to socially awkward types who perhaps spend just a little bit too much time in their own heads, it’s a tiny regret of mine that I didn’t encounter the music of They Might Be Giants during my teenage years, …
Not Forgotten: They Might Be Giants – Lincoln
They Might Be Giants debut album is one of those releases where the act seems to have emerged fully formed almost out of nowhere. I say almost, in reality the Two Johns had formed TMBG in 1982, having simultaneously moved to Brooklyn from Lincoln, Massachusetts without realising the other was moving too. A few years …
Live Review: They Might Be Giants – Leeds Brudenell Social Club, 21 September 2018
Leeds is roughly 3,555 miles away from The Two John’s home district of Brooklyn, but in Leeds Brudenell Social Club this evening, They Might Be Giants are treat as returning heroes from the very moment thy hit the stage. This is TMBG’s second consecutive sold out night at this semi-legendary and utterly no nonsense venue, …
Not Forgotten: They Might Be Giants – Severe Tire Damage
It’s probably fair to say that there are mixed opinions when it comes to Severe Tire Damage. An album of largely live performances, of the two studio tracks, one is one of They Might Be Giants’ undisputable classics, “Dr Worm”, the other is a short and sweet instrumental acting as a bridge between “Dr Worm” …
Album Review: They Might Be Giants – I Like Fun
With their Dial-A-Song service returning, and a European Tour lined up towards the end of the year, it looks like 2018 is going to be a busy one for They Might Be Giants. Highlight of the year for many will no doubt be their new album, I Like Fun, a long player which on the …

Veteran Brooklyn duo They Might Be Giants have recently announced a new 15 track album called I Like Fun that is due to be released in early 2018, as well as the return of their weekly Dial-A-Song Service via www.dialasong.com, and the following European Tour, including half a dozen UK dates and their debut appearance …
Not Forgotten: They Might Be Giants – They Might Be Giants (a.k.a. Pink Album. a.k.a. First Album)
Released into a musical landscape over-populated by purveyors of synth-pop, stadium rock, post punk, underground alternative, heartland rockers, disposable pop and The Smiths (the band that pretty much defined what the mainstream thought indie / alternative music was in the mid 80s, at least here in the UK), the eponymous debut of They Might Be …
Not Forgotten: They Might Be Giants – Mink Car
Having extracted themselves from the Elektra record label, They Might Be Giants spent the late 90s keeping relatively low key, with the live Severe Tyre Damage and the early internet oddity Long Tall Weekend being the only albums added to their already interesting CV. By 2001 though they had a backlog of material to clear, …
Album Review: They Might Be Giants – Phone Power
The third album to be compiled from tracks that They Might Be Giants released on their rebooted Dial-A-Song service on YouTube during 2015, Phone Power has been released as a pay-what-you-want download, and will be released in more traditional formats in the future. So far, so Radiohead. TMBG fans knew that a third album of …
