About The Modernettes
Vancouver, Canada's Modernetttes were described by critics as a cross between the Velvet Underground and the Ramones. They were regulars on the Vancouver club scene and played up and down the west coast of the U.S. They burned out quickly but not before delivering some great punk pop recordings. They debuted with the EP "Strictly Confidential" (Quintessence, 1980) quickly followed by the critical favorite EP "Teen City" (Quintessence, 1980) They released one full length LP,"Gone...But Not Forgotten" and one last EP "View From The Bottom" before disbanding. Selections from these recordings as well as unreleased live tracks & demos have been collected on CD by the Sudden Death label. The Modernettes were: John "Buck Cherry" Armstrong - guitar, vocals Mary Jo Kopechne - bass, vocals John "Jughead" McAdams - drums, vocals
