"Stop! Look! Listen!" ... now the Digger$ are worth your attention and
appreciation. I have no idea how much recognition this fine Glaswegian band
received following their contract with Creation Records, but "They said I'd
know" from the _Mount Everest_ LP/CD must be one of last year's favourite
tunes, "Life's all ways" off the "Nobody's fool" 7"/12"/CDs from the year
preceding that ... the line-up featured quite interesting personnel in the
earlier days as well.

Phew maybe i got to you just in time. Add N to X are a slightly strange
3-some from London. They play the moog & that knob twiddling thing that
just goes wwwwhaaaaaaa at higher frequencies till you're ears hurt
(theramine??!!sp?)& related Drum machines in a slightly mad slowed down
charlatans instrumental way - looking at that description that makes
them sound utter bobbins but they're not. On the web they are described
thusly
"ADD N TO X is "Avant Hard". "Avant Hard" is the title for their
music a sort of cross between Manic Street Preachers, Suicide,
Kraftwerk and Throbbing Gristle" ummmm!
They are a hundred times cleverer than Air, more inventive & for a band
with no vocals strange as it may sound i find them funny. Air are
probably the wrong band to compare but when i bought Mobile Safari i was
expecting it to sound like the 12"s that i had by N to X. They released
2 on their own label 'Satellite', King Wasp & The Black Regent/Murmur
One, which are very nice items. King Wasp came in with a 3d picture on
thesleeve with some spex in with the record & The Black Regent had a man
with a welding mask on with part of it cut out for a sheet of Add N to X
plastic to poke out behind....oh yes the tunes are good as well & both
are on the LP 'On The Wires On Our Nerves' - Go Buy
They also had a LP out in 1996 called Veros Electronics
Look for more info on http://www.blowup.demon.co.uk/addntox/index.htm
Let me know if you're convinced & then on monday you can give me a good
ear-bash for wasting your hard earned pennies. Ha-Ha
Cheers
Paul.

This is what Matador sent out yesterday -- seems like the chat is News! Have
sent the whole thing because there are tour dates for people some listees have
mentioned. Sorry it's so long.
I remember manimal. It reminded me of those choose your own
adventure books, where you could be either a tiger or a shark.
I'm sorry to say this but I preferred Knightrider. It was the
only show where I could cope with David Hasselhoff playing a
major part. However, we all know that the star of the show was
Kit... the neat car that would scare the hell out of criminals,
when they tried to break in to him.
Matt.

Custard creams.......The little albino cousin of the mighty

What's a penguin but a tarted up bourbon?
sorry

Paul,
As it happens I was going to but yhe the AIR cd this weekend,
but I can always get a copy, so why should I by this 'Add N to X' LP.
Never heard of them bu tI am interested. Please tell me more.

Can anyone tell me what sort of stuff Snow Patrol play? They were in Dublin
the other week I think but I didn't know about it til it was over.
Has anyone heard the new single by Setanta band Catchers? They played a
great Radcliffe Session about 3 years ago, promised a new album soon, and
promptly disappeared off the face of the earth.
Token B&S Question: Has anyone got the lyrics to "Century Of Elvis" (sorry
if this is one that's come up before)
On the great TV Debate, Knight Rider was the business and gets my vote . My
only memory of Manimal was of hiding behind the sofa when the transformation
was taking place. For some reason I could watch it so long as there was a
big chair between me and the telly...

That ain't true! And please don't try and use french words just because of the
biscuit/bar debate! :)
>Try Snow Patrol's ep. It's got the jeepster connection.
Heard it yesterday on the Bernard Lenoir show on France Inter. I agree it
sounded dead dead good...

Keith, you're right, you cant get the Guy Chadwick album in Virgin.
Forget it anyway, as it's blancmange.
Try Snow Patrol's ep. It's got the jeepster connection.
Biscuits: why are the best ones the cheapest? i.e. Party Rings,
Bourbon and those flashy pink wafer ones.

"Milky Biscuit" - hmmm, I've not heard it called that before. It was
always "Soggy Biscuit" at my top-peoples-private-school. So I should be
more qualified to expand on the subject. However I was never involved in
such goings on, not being a boarder (or New Order roadie) you
understand. I'd like to tell you more about which biscuits fared best
but the world of Soggy Biccy is apparently very secretive and they don't
divulge those secrets to just anybody.
Crow-bar in a B&S link?? - Soggy Biscuit can be an alternative/adjunct
to Cock Fun.
PS All Canadians will know that the world's greatest biscuit/cookie is
the Double StuFf Fudge-oo. "Ah Monsieur Christie, vous faites des bons
biscuits!"
I love you coz your lovely
John

You poor get ! How did you cope ?
It's not as if you could write a letter, forging your mothers signature saying, "Please excuse Joseph from physical activities as he's got an itchy scrotum."
Not that I ever tried this one you'll understand.
