The cover art alone makes me want to buy it, but I wanted an informed opinion before I lay down the cash. I kinda liked their "New York Muscle" EP from a while back... but I had to be in one of those cocaine-flashback electroclash moods.

I don't know how I could've missed all these threads. Gasp!!! :0 Thanks Ned...

You know something though? It sounds, from what I've read so far, that they owe a massive debt to Mr. Bill Drummond and Mr. Jimmy Cauty.

I'm almost afraid that they'll wind up on my year-end Top Ten, but then I go back and listen to it and the fear dissolves, mostly because hey what's to fear from a bunch of goofy bastards that make hatin' fun? Never has the term "Devoid" been so double-edged a sword for me.

(no fear means "what's wrong with them making the list", not "no chance they'll make the list")

That's all I need to know. I'm sold. Record store tomorrow. :)
