The Bigger The God, sometimes known as TBTG was a British alternative rock band in the 1990s. Formed in 1990, and based in Oxford, the band was identified with the local music scene that spawned Radiohead, Supergrass and Ride. However, their music, with its wry vignettes of sexual shenanigans, was more comparable to the songs of Pulp. Singer David Cowles-Hamar, who often performed barefoot, in a sarong, was a charismatic frontman, although the bulk of the songwriting fell to guitarist Ellis James. Their first album, Variety, won positive reviews in 1996, but the collapse of the Britpop movement, and the band's drift into more experimental sounds meant that they were unable to achieve the success of their better known contemporaries. Their follow-up, ...and the Ugly (1999) was much less successful, and TBTG split in 2003. |
