A Load of Squit 5,201 Posted September 10, 2023 A up and coming band featuring Robert Peston on vocals, Ed Balls on drums and John Wilson (of 'Front Row on R4) on guitar. I think they've found their niche (it's not this). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Herman 9,818 Posted September 14, 2023 I heard this today and loved it. A powerful piece of music with cellos and effects. As far away from Erasure/Yazoo style synth-pop as possible. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would guess my judgement is coloured by having played it a lot during my teens but I think it has some great tracks, Jigsaw Feeling included. That led me back to The Sky’s Gone Out by Bauhaus (I hadn’t realised but I must have had a bit of a late-teen Goth phase, before Goths existed) I know they have a bit of a cheesy reputation but if you view it as a Grand Guignol type tongue-in-cheek thing, it is great. Really inventive. And I still love this (although not on that album) - who remembers that they mixed in dub reggae? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Angry 1,570 Posted September 16, 2023 I’ve recently read Peter Hook’s book about The Haçienda and then his book about Joy Division. I’m now reading Jon Savage’s book about Joy Division but I’ve been listening to my favourite New Order tracks and I think this is my number one favourite by them.

keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted September 21, 2023 I love the opinion about Blue Nile You have to be in the mood to listen to them. But when you do they are the best band in the world. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
