Rob Dickinson (Catherine Wheel) ~ "Black Metallic"- Feb.2007

[quiksilver31427]

Amazing. This song performed live is so much better than the studio recording. A quality that is lacking from most music that is produced today.

[BigDaddyBooze]

Great performance. I was at both the shows at Lee's and they were amazing.

[matthewjames666]

That's The Horseshoe, not lee's.

[hloveday]

Sorry Matthew, but I have the ticket stub to prove it...it 'was' at Lee's....not the Horseshoe - he may have performed there on another occasion, but not this date ;)

[hugginsrob2]

Rob is surely one of the most mezmerising singers to grace Rock, vastly underrated..especially here in the States. Oh and one more thing:he is utterly GORGEOUS!

[rglovesu2]

Beautiful.

[okuiai]

no offence poeple but it seems to me when they went of the boil over here they changed to suit the US  market he even sings with a more american accent now.shame best days were early 90's norwich,essex,london.

[StussySteveo]

I agree. But I still feel that the change, even though may not have been better than the earlier days--still was/is amazing! Still beats the holy hell out of the current crap music these days. Rob is an amazing artist!

[antifolkhero]

Love this song, but you know its about a car, right?

[dustypork]

@antifolkhero Really? I always thought of it in a erotic sort of way.

[dustypork]

@antifolkhero That kinda ruins it for me.

[hugginsrob2]

does anyone have any footage of his first show at lees palace in 2006

[stressboy54]

I love the album Crank... its probely the first album I listend to from begining to end!Rob's acoustic music is unforgetable

[davidleegoth]

there's a storm inside that guy

[harvestfun]

flash back to my generation x days in those early 90's...great voice .I would love to see a Catherine Wheel reunion tour!!

[Aquaholic50]

I saw Rob play in a small dive bar in San Diego awhile back. One of the best shows I can remember!

This guy's guitar work gives me chills.

[5stringofFernandoSor]

Killer song, I just downloaded the old version off itunes after hearing it on Sirius channel 24 Lithium. I am suprised he pulled that song off acousticly so well. It would have been even better with a bass and some drums in the background.
