Ben London's Alcohol Funnycar belong to the late generation of Seattle's 1990s indie-rock.

They came to light with the EPs Burn and Time To Make The Donuts (C/Z, 1993) and songs such as Shapes on the second album display sincerity if not originality, even though they are fundamentally melodic hard-rock, glam-rock and pop for Nirvana fans. The album Weasels (C/Z, 1995) is a waste of time: it should have been a single because only two songs, Objects and Red Wine, and maybe the catchy Kindling, are worth the hype. Ben London is acrobatic between the simple refrains of their ditties.

Later, singer Ben London formed Sanford Arms, whose Too Loud For The Snowman (Pattern 25, 2001) mixes lush, noisy, psychedelic arrangements and slow, melancholy, alt-country depression (Science & Industry).
