Next time you're in some crappy dead end job which I've been in quite a few times. I start to sing this song. And I mean it dudes, if you're in Rut for damn sake get outta it. Don't waste away the years being taken for a ride. Better sometimes to walk straight out of the door of some jobs even without another to go to than get stuck in a RUT.

He died around the same time as that Ian Curtis. Never understand why Curtis has been virtually canonised since but Malcolm Owen forgotten. Joy Division couldn't hold a candle to The Ruts.

Before today, "Babylons Burning" was the only Ruts song I'd heard-listening to these other songs makes the singers heroin overdose seem even more sad...

@marynightshade In that case; and if you haven't heard it already, search for their 'Love In Vain' track. That'll have you in tears, a very moving song even today.
