Initially regarded as just another 'shoegazing' Britpop band, the unit quickly began to earn the respect of the industry with well-written songs. Upon releasing their second album, 1991's critically-acclaimed ''Bandwagonesque'', many thought the band's future was indeed quite bright; in fact, ''Rolling Stone'' chose the disc as the best of 1991 - above even REM's ''Out Of Time'' or [[Nirvana]]'s '' | After shuffling around in various bands in the late 80s, the core of Teenage Fanclub (or 'TFC' for short) came together in 1989.
