Ahead of the british band Elastica even releasing their debut album there was a monumental amount of hype around the group. Some dubbed them as the new wave of new wave bands to come out of the UK. The group’s first album was big a success, but the band’s decade long existence would be dogged by infighting, lineup changes, lawsuits, drugs, aborted studio sessions, and life under the spotlight. Today we’re going to take a look at whatever happened to the band.
Elastica frontwoman and guitarist Justine Frischmann (Frishman) would grow up in a middle class family in a West London suburb. As a child she was surrounded by music whether it was going through her brother’s records which consisted of David Bowie and Blondie albums or being encouraged by her russian mother who herself wanted to be a singer. She would begin writing and studying music at age 11 and had aspirations of being an artist but her parents pushed her into architecture. Frishmann’s father,was a hungarian who never spoke about his experiences during world war 2 and would go on to become well renowned structural engineer who was e chairman of Pell Frischmann working on some of the most storied buildings in London including Center Point and Nat West Tower. Frischman would describe her father saying to the guardianmy father is an incredibly positive, ambitious, world-embracing person, and seeing that has been really important to me - which is why I try not to drag him into the pathetic little world of the music business'.
Frischmann would study architecture at University College London, but she never saw herself at this point in her life playing music professionally or even getting up on stage. She would tell spin magazine “i never really thought i’d be brave enough to get onstage. It’s a particular set of balls you need. It happened by accident. Cause i started playing guitar with a couple of people from college and they started taking it seriously.” It was now 1989 and she was referring to muaisican brett anderson who she was also in a romantic relationship with. Both anderson and frischman would co-found the british group Suede. Frishmann wasn’t happy with her role in the band and thought their songs were too indulgent and long telling Spin magazine “there was too much horror involved and I was the token girl standing at the back strumming a guitar and i became frustrated telling the guardian in a separte interview'I just thought it was better to be Pete Best than Linda McCartney,' 'Apart from anything, I couldn't deal with being the second guitarist and having this strange, Lady Macbeth role in it, along with being general mother to four blokes.'
