What a band. I believe Chatshow supported them on tour once, hence Chatshow's heavy sound modelled on Play Dead. Play Dead though, the flanged bass sound, the rolling drums and riffffing guitar and high pitched vocals. Sends a shiver down the spine even now! Got some live bootlegs of the band and all of their EPs. Even saw and heard first album(Isabel). Offered to buy it but they wouldn't budge :-(
sweet jesus, he gave this up to be a bloody painter, im a painter an its shite.used to have all the good bands on video from the tube, till me dad taped over em with the bloody cricket!!

This is what the world is so terrifyingly missing now. Has anyone noticed the increasing ugliness, stupidity, and arrogance of EVERYONE these days?
Scary shit.
