Best known as the post-<a href="spotify:artist:1lYT0A0LV5DUfxr6doRP3d">Stone Roses</a> project of guitarist John Squire, the Seahorses picked up where the last <a href="spotify:artist:1lYT0A0LV5DUfxr6doRP3d">Stone Roses</a> record left off, leaning toward traditional rock rather than the dance-influenced Brit-pop of <a href="spotify:artist:1lYT0A0LV5DUfxr6doRP3d">the Stone Roses</a>' heyday. In 1996, less than a year after <a href="spotify:artist:1lYT0A0LV5DUfxr6doRP3d">the Stone Roses</a> called it quits, <a href="spotify:artist:3G7eO5RPVtqem98Qg8kTx2">Squire</a> formed the Seahorses (which, when the letters are rearranged, spells "he hates roses") along with vocalist/guitarist <a href="spotify:artist:0QWU12CzKMBlwaema7DzGn">Chris Helme</a>, bassist Stuart Fletcher, and drummer Andy Watts. Produced by the legendary <a href="spotify:artist:46ISQ20xfCvHum4YeV08XF">Tony Visconti</a>, Do It Yourself was released in June 1997 and received mixed reviews. After a world tour, including several dates with <a href="spotify:artist:2DaxqgrOhkeH0fpeiQq2f4">Oasis</a>, the band hit the studio to record their second album, only to see <a href="spotify:artist:2savq7Id5eDV0DVsoug0wH">Watts</a> leave the group. He was quickly replaced, but after only one album, the group disbanded in February 1999 due to creative differences between <a href="spotify:artist:3G7eO5RPVtqem98Qg8kTx2">Squire</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:0QWU12CzKMBlwaema7DzGn">Helme</a>. An album's worth of material had been recorded, but never surfaced. <a href="spotify:artist:0QWU12CzKMBlwaema7DzGn">Helme</a> continued to record as a solo artist, while <a href="spotify:artist:3G7eO5RPVtqem98Qg8kTx2">Squire</a> has remained quiet since. ~ Kenyon Hopkin, Rovi
