I never heard back from them :(

I fancied myself as a bit of a music hack, so I wrote some singles reviews
that I though were pretty good.  Stuff like "Caramba!  The Spiceys are
back, and this time they've been shopping in the latino-beats aisle of the
great pop supermarket".  I've just checked and I still have them... see

(I'm particularly proud of that Portishead review "If you took the James
Bond theme tune and bunged it through a washing machine at a high
temperature, it would probably come out like this" indeed!)
