***An interesting story surrounds the re-emergence of Get Your Feet Back on the Ground. Late ‘80s, specifically in 1989, GRABBEL AND THE FINAL CUT were formed in Hamburg and played the scene on what seems to be the most flourishing years for shoegaze. Though some of shoegaze’s excelllent records were produced before ’89 (Twins’ Head Over Heels in ’83, ’85 for The Jesus and Mary Chain’s Psychocandy), the peak of the genre’s popularity reached its heights with the release of personal favorites Loveless by My Bloody Valentine and the seminal Nowhere by Oxford imports Ride. During this period was when Grabbel and The Final Cut produced self-released cassettes distributed in and out of the German town including the EP Get Your Feet Back on the Ground. After playing numerous shows and with the reign of Detroit in rock, Grabbel and The Final Cut let the curtain fell in 1996 wherein the band until then remained unsigned.”
