90s indie pop band featuring ex-members of the seminal "twee" popsters Talulah Gosh.

Subsequent to the death by suicide of original Heavenly drummer Mathew Fletcher, the Heavenly moniker was retired and the band re-emerged after a short hiatus as the sleeker and shinier Marine Research.

Also a British Record Label responsible for launching the careers of Saint Etienne, Manic Street Preachers, Flowered Up, East Village, The Rockingbirds and Dot Allison.
