HELVELLN
In the finicky annals of Australian music history, and with no disrespect to Helvelln, they barely warrant a mention. To briefly summarise, Helvelln was an inspired pop/rock three-piece formed in Melbourne in the late 80’s. In 1989 they won a battle of the bands run by the City of Malvern (Stonnington these days). The prize was a couple of days recording at Bakehouse in Fitzroy and they recorded ''Subway'' and ''Elvis''. In 1990 they were signed to the Mushroom label's subsidiary White Label Records where they released a single and their debut album in 1991. As debut albums go it was classic three-piece rock/pop — strong hooks, great melodies, just perfect, catchy radio tunes.
