"If we wished we could help this man and our backs would not break". Words that many politicians would not understand and which sums up the refugee situation in Australia. We have room for families from war zones fleeing to a safe place. 20,000 left Christchurch after the earthquakes for the same reason people leave war zones - safety. Some homeless Kiwis will move and be welcomed in Australia however the many genuine refugees (95%+) coming by boat will be traumatised by the Detention Centres.
Love this band, first heard them when they were signed to Acid jazz in London, cant track down any of their albums.....any help from the Southern hem ???????
theyre gonna be playing at the metro in sydney, ticket's 35 bucks. yeh i heard they split up but have reunited and just doing tours atm. i heard some if their stuff on video hits :)

I second that. I've been looking for this song & band's 90's stuff everywhere! So, yeah, finally for sure. Jeez, try finding the CD! Someone nicked mine about 10 years ago. I've been looking for another one ever since:-(
I took this and red hot chilli peppers into my music course at the age of 16 and recieved full marks for my comparison because A) my tech teacher hadn't heard this in years and B) he knew Aya Larkin
I'm so proud that Warwick Scott is my uncle.........

These guys were great. I remember watching them in Adelaide, they put on a fantastic show. Feed is still one of my top 10 cd's of all time.

Their "The Sheeps of Sams Clam Disco" album, apart from having the best title ever, is a great great album.
