Seafood were one of the best indie bands of the late nineties and early noughties. Seriously. Check out this six track playlist if you don't believe me. Too grunge for Britpop and too early for Indie Sleaze, the band made four belting albums, played with the likes of Snow Patrol, Idlewild, Ash and Dashboard Confessional, and received five-star critical acclaim. David Line was Seafood's lead vocalist and chief songwriter. In this episode we talk about the highs and lows of the band, the realities of the music industry and get a performance of three acoustic songs (two Seafood classics and a newly-penned track). All capped off by David taking the Seafood Quiz! For fans of music documentaries, check out Seafood's Where Have You Been? on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=se6U6HocndE
