Well if you really must know apparently they're recording an LP for Dreamworks and there was some story about "someone so famous I've forgotten their name" recording in the neighbouring studio.

Exterminator is an excellent album. Loud, brash, abrasive, lots of interesting bits and some good tunes too. But I missed the hype because I don't read the music press since they only ever seem to have features on Travis and the Sterephonics these days. The ADF album is good, perhaps a bit too long at 70 mins so it took a few listens to get into. They could have got a cracking 45 minute album out of it. Still they've got a great sound and I think those punky bits are still there, just with some slightly less jarring stuff in between. Andy From stuart.paterson@...

That's good in that it maybe doing some sort of crossover ande encouraging people to listen to other sounds.

Punk Drone a coupe of years ago >so it's clearly from a film or something. I agree the Secret Goldfish track is superior. Those great slogans appear to come from a Dennis Hopper- directed film 'Out of the Blue':..... "After Easy Rider, Hopper could do anything he wanted. He went to Peru to spend millions of studio money and two years filming and editing The Last Movie, a sort of drugged-out Western epic that won best feature at the prestigious Venice Film Festival but that was dead-on-arrival in U.S. theaters. The Last Movie, which has rarely been screened since, almost ruined Hopper's career, and indeed, it was doubtful he would direct again. His return to the director's chair - nine years later with Out of the Blue was unexpected. Hopper, who signed on to act in the film, was given the reins shortly before shooting commenced, and he changed the film's focus from a psychologist played by Raymond Burr to the coming of age of one of his patients, a troubled adolescent played by Linda Manz. The film, which might be accurately subtitled "Where Punk Comes From," tapped into late-Seventies/post-Vietnam feelings of youth alienation and the bankruptcy of adult authority. Out of the Blue opens in the past, as a prepubescent "CeBe" Barnes (Manz) rides in the cab of a semi with her truck driver father Don (Hopper). CeBe and Don flirt while they drive, with a physical intimacy that is perhaps a bit uncomfortable (or a bit too comfortable). They sing "Teddy Bear," and Don asks his daughter, "Am I as sexy as Elvis?" Preoccupied with CeBe, Don doesn't see a full school bus stalled in the middle of the road ahead, and he plows into it. The film depicts this excruciating event from inside the bus, shows kids running to the door, screaming, just as the truck makes contact. At the point of collision, CeBe wakes up. It is a memory revisited in a dream: It's five years later and CeBe has entered adolescence. Don has been in prison for the last five years because of the crash and is about to be paroled. While he's gone, CeBe, who has discovered punk with a vengeance and who builds a shrine to Elvis in her bedroom, hangs out in the mangled cab of the truck, deserted in a field, only the CB radio working. Using the handle her father gave her, "Gorgeous," the pre-teen girl indiscriminately harasses truck drivers, filling the airwaves with propaganda by dead-panning a litany of pet slogans: "Disco sucks," "Kill all hippies," "Pretty vacant," and "Subvert normality."

That's why i was talking about a new movement (a la punk/baggy/grunge) because so many people are getting into it and Asian Dub Foundation (I put it on at a party last night and expected it to be off within one song, but we got through the whole album with people asking me for details).

I don't know much about PIL's sound (I never hear them on the radio and I can't afford to buy many albums) but I read an interview saying what Gillespie was trying to do was make an album that summed up its time like PIL's metal box did, rather than ape the sound. >> Has anyone got the Asian dub Foundation album?

Sadly that's how they are forced to behave, in order to justify spending licence payers' money. If their audience had continued to fall after the early nineties trough, they'd have been axed by now, or at least all the programmes which don't work to the playlist would have been. It's the daytime/breakfast show shite for no-brainers that actually drags listeners back from the commercials, and if you think R1 is bad, just listen to your friendly local station. At least R1 doesn't have ads (yet), except of course the bloody irritating trails for other BBC product which interrupt every decent show on the station, Peel included. Radio 4 listeners don't have to put up with ads in the middle of The Archers, so why do we? Probably we're not middle class enough. Cheers! Rocker, rocker@...
