I really like em!

First I got "Programmed to LOve" and then I had to get "The
Everlasting Blink" both dope albums.

Swollen is such a great track.

Am I the only one who likes em (I dont want to get any
stupid comments like: YES U ARE the only one who likes em,
theyre way too commercial, ministry of sound fags....)?

I havent seen one topic about em? they are nice , so was
up'``*

bent are my buddies. they gave me a copy of their hall and
oates remix that never got released, comissioned by h +o
too. very good. it is going to feature on a compilation
album that the bar i used to work at is putting out on a
label called mint source. also got two exclusive studio
fuckabout tracks that they did, one called "take a look at
your life, you cunt." the most intense thing i've heard in a
long time! if i can work out how to upload it, i will post
it as an mp3.

i thought theyd have trouble beating their debut but they
just keep getting better! there new album is a gem,
especially that rather odd leo sayer (?) track.

and don't forget that great track on their last ep, "i think
of you (while i should be working)". i'd like to hear them
do more of this kind of stuff, perhaps on future b-sides.

and theyre from nottingham! :) the last 'electronic' band to
come from nottingham were krush (remember them) and they
were piss poor :)

Aren't Schmoov as well?

BTW, Edwin Starr died and he lived in Nottingham. I didn't
know that.

I really like some of Programmed to Love; Swollen, You Are
Always in my Heart and A Ribbon For My Hair espec. But at
times they slip into a bit of a novelty sound.

yeah, my favorite song in "Programmed to Love" is A
ribbon for my hair
. Thanks to this album I started to
like some Nana Mouskouri albums.

How about Fila Brazillia?

Fila brazillia is great! "a touch of cloth" is almost broken
due to heavy usage... got all their cds, except "jump leads"
for some reason...
Filas remix of Freakpowers "new direction" (fila brazillia
duo, it should be the fast on out of two remixes) is an all
time high.
