Que pedo con esos weyes cambian un chingo de genero , esta rola y la mierda de surrender apestan ... de donde son yo pense que eran de Mexico los pendejetes esos.
I used to record 120 Miniutes on MTV every week in 1995 trying to find these videos and I never saw them. Finally I devised a scheme and called around Warner's and convinced a promo person that I had a cable access show and wanted to feature Electrafixion in an episode. I could't believe it when I received a huge package full of Promo stuff. I got "Never" and "Lowdown" on VHS, a Promo labeled "Burned", both disks for the "Never" single fold out as well as single for "Lowdown",...
50 Electrafixion postcards, 20 bumper-stickers that would disintegrate after about 3 months in the weather, a band Bio and a bunch of 8x10 band press photos! To cap it all off I saw them live front and center less than 5 feet away from Ian on June 6th 1996 at Liberty Lunch in Austin TX. It was general admission and I arrived 3 hours early to guaranty that it was me in that
spot. I offered Ian a Marlborough between songs and he took it but then he looked at me and gestured "Got a light?"
but alas it was to late, Will cut short my possible moment of supreme coolness as I fumbled with my lighter as he started the opening riff to the next song... Man did I feel dumb. Meeting them after the show at that time was really special because there were so few people who had even heard of Electrafixion. Anyway, It was a great show and easy to meet the band afterward. I was amazed how much they interacted with the fans. I got Ian to sign every solo and Bunnymen LP and EP that I had.
Back then my baby bought me this single and it's great B side. This song hit the spot and meant so much to me. It touched on my own life. How do writers like Sergeant and McCullough do it? Superb......
Brillaint singer and brilliant guitarist, does it matter about the band name? Doubt it. Just wish Bunnymen played some of the Electrafixion songs live now, now that would be fantastic.
Totally classic Ian McCulloch -- "there was only one Echo & the Bunnymen" -- then about a year after this interview, they're playing as The Bunnymen again. He also said that he'd never play "Zimbo" again in honor of Pete DeFreitas -- and they play it regularly. Ian McCulloch -- the biggest backpeddler in the world. You cannot rely on anything he says.
This is great song to hear when you are totally smashed in a pub, saw them do this live and it was like the earth was cracking in half...along my eardrums...aces.
awesome song. its absolutely impossible to find the mp3 of this song. absolutely impossible. only in youtube i can listen and there is only this link which only 1 person have commented on. i dont get why such a great song is so f.kin much underestimated.

Wow - a lost gem with a nod towards Bowie and echoes of future Verve/Ashcroft and Oasis. Ian+WIll = pure genius.
