In the US, Beat Happening were on the same roster. The fact that John Peel was a fan makes complete sense. Of course he was. By the time Social Dancing arrived, Bis were being openly attacked by the bloggers you would have expected to support them.
Pitchfork talked more about Deee-Lite than Bis, both bands bashed for having imagination. Imagine coming for Deee-Lite. In this environment, Bis put out an album that also happened to be their best. Social Dancing took everything we knew of Bis and poppified it even further, glossing up the guitars, drums, synths, and songwriting.
The advertising campaign had the band on buses, no expense spared. The album sounded like Bis, no matter what style they tackled. The trademark shouting, shrieking to and fro vocals, the heckled psychotic cheerleading chanting were still there where they belonged. This time a little bit more polished, but fabulous nonetheless. The band had the tunes too. Action And Drama. Am I Loud Enough? Goodness, even Lois Maffeo! But Bis had something else.
