Ned's Atomic Dustbin is a British alternative rock band formed in 1987 in Stourbridge. Known for their energetic sound, they blend elements of punk, grunge, and indie rock. The band gained popularity in the early 1990s with hits like "Not Sleeping Around" and "Grey Cell Green," showcasing their distinctive dual bass guitar setup. The band's name is a playful reference to a character from the comic strip "Ned's Atomic Dustbin," created by British cartoonist Dave Gibbons. Although they experienced commercial success, their popularity waned by the late 1990s. Despite this, they remain influential in the alternative music scene.
