80s Matchbox B-Line Disaster






After their jaw-dropping first TV performance on Born Sloppy playing their new single Psychosis Safari, we're at a bit of loss describe this band? Let's have a go: Buddhist psycho goth rock? Mmmmm, how does that sound?

You'll just have to watch the show (or here when we upload the clip next Wednesday) and make up your own definition. In fact, yes! Mail us with your under five word capsule summary. The best will win a prize.

Celebrate Your Mother















We found Mark (guitarist) and Guy (singer) slipping in their scary contact lenses and demanded replies to the following demands:

What you guys up to in 2003? MARK: We're planning to start recording a new album in May. GUY: Should be out in September. But mainly this year we're going to tour and tour and have it basically. What have you been listening to recently? MARK: Mr Bungle! I got a Mr Bungle CD for Christmas, Fischerspooner, and since Joe Strummer died I've been swotting up on The Clash. GUY: I've been listening to the Little Hell album 'Welcome To The DAC', Torquemada'. Who do you rate at the moment? British Sea Power - been looking forward to seeing what they're going to do. We were talking to Bruce Dickinson the other day and Iron Maiden are recording their new album now. So that should be interesting. You heard it here first. What was the first record you ever bought? GUY: Now That's What I Call Music 11. Very sad. Could've been 'New Kids On The Block' Hanging Tough. We were big fans. We used to do the dance routine with the tennis rackets. We've got this on tape. Yeah very sad. Take On Me A-ha was also very influential. Are you sure you want to be admitting this? MARK: I can't remember. The first record that was bought for me was Michael Jackson 'Bad'. Even been to any embarrassing gigs? I went to see Cast at the Brighton Centre. Mark: I was quite into the Levellers when I was twelve. Finally, can you tell us one amazing fact about anything in the world? GUY: In the Amazon forest last year a flock of parots that haven't been spotted since 1908 were seen - fourteen on them in the flock. People thought they were extinct or possibly just a mythical bird. Best story I read in the newspaper last year, quite a shocker since it wasn't guns, rape, carnage, war, suffering.
