[kj] at last...

[Rob Moss]

I bought a cd of it years back thinking it would be better quality than that which I had heard. 

It isn't but you are welcome to a copy if you send me your address. 

But no more of those naked pictures of yourself like last time eh?

It's *very* unusual - totally different from anything they've done in the last 30 years.  Harks back to that first EP.  Great that they've taken a musical risk again - it's been far too long.

Some wicked guitar in there.  I could live without some of screechier siren noises, but overall it works really well.  Love the way the guitar blasts in.  This feckin' rocks!
