Nub was an English indie rock band from 1991 to 1998. They were usually made up of Tim Ineson (vocals, guitar), Adam Ineson (guitar), Nat Saunders (bass) and Jeff Gerhardt (drums), although Simon Hartop and Graham Blackwell had a look-in too. They released singles such as Fall Guy (Rough Trade Singles Club), Blacktop (Flowershop Records), Blue Climber (Jackass) and Hopper (Planet Records), and recorded a Peel Session in 1996. They were always in the NME and Melody Maker, but never got round to releasing an album before they split up. A retrospective album compiling their singles and demos was released by And Then Records in 2007.
