Yes, instrumentals are just wrong.
Well, apart from the three Smiths ones, which are ace.
And a couple of Rush ones.
And the theme tune to Airwolf.

Interesting, Amazon .co.uk reports that Crooked Timber is 248 or 268 or something in Music? I don’t know how accurate the numbers always are but that is damn impressive for the CD is it not? Or isn’t it?

Howdy my peeps… (that’s how we talk in the U.S.)
Any idea where I can get the lyrics to the Crooked Timber CD? I bought it off Napster, so if it’s included in the sleeve of the CD or vinyl copies, I’m out of luck, so far, anyway.
Really happy with this album! Exiles, Crooked Timber, Somnambulist, The Head…, Enjoy the Stuggle, and I Told You I was Ill are my favorites so far.
Peace, Love, Dope… (we say that here too)

Really happy with this album too… I specially like Crooked timber, Exiles and Somnambulist… Things remind me Helmet, The Jesus Lizard or Girls against boys… Maybe disappointed by the sound, a bit clean… I would have prefered something rough and wild, like in Babyteeth, SPYF or the concerts…

@ Sam
I read it somewhere in an interview with them but I can’t remember for the life of me which one it was. It’s was definitely in one of the links posted in the reviews/interviews thread. I haven’t been clever enough to find any interviews before Sarah :p
Got my vinyl through today. Looks reeeeeally nice. Has anyone else got theirs yet?? I’m guessing that because they’re limited, they’re all numbered. What numbers did you all get? :D

I’d go with that too - Clowns Galore has grown on me a lot over the weekend as well.
not saying I don’t like Magic Mountain, but not sure it really fits with the rest of the album.

Are we going to have some stories about the songs frim Mr Cairns soon?
Clowns Galore is basically So Called Life/Unconsoled again, lyrically, isn’t it?

Apologies for the double post - but what Andy said about the way he sings on the album is in this interview - http://www.state.ie/blog/therapy-interview/
Sarah posted it already but just in case anyone was interested.
“The other thing was that my accent used to sound like me and at some point it drifted across the Atlantic. He told me to sing like I would talk, without turning into that bloke from Coronation Street.”

To be fair, I have a nice lady at the record label who emails me the links so I’m not doing owt clever!
I got my vinyl today. You know those women who marry inanimate objects like walls and stuff? I can kind of see where they’re coming from now…
Are they numbered? Mine isn’t numbered :(
