Got ‘Manchasm’ the new Future Of The Left cd single in the mail today. Officially it has only been released as a 7 inch, but as I’m not a real vinyl junkie, I’d rather buy a promotional cd copy off eBay. Guess I’m just too lazy to keep turning that vinyl on my pick-up (oh yes, I still have a pick-up). Downside of buying the cd ofcourse is that you don’t get the artwork in the same large size as on the 7 inch. And FoTL always have great but slightly awkward artwork. Check out the Manchasm cover:
FoTL have something with cats. Hence the cat in the artwork I guess. I just realised that I even know the names of the cats of the FoTL members: Chicken, Colin and Morrissey. So I ask you: how on earth did thàt happen? Why on bloody earth do I manage to remember those cat names while I seem to be completely unable to remember the names of people I meet in real life? In one ear – out the other. I must have an overdeveloped ‘rock trivia’ part in my brain. I must ask my doctor if a lobotomy helps in this kind of cases. If I can remember to ask him that is.
Oh yeah, ‘Manchasm’ is a bloody great song. That’s basically all I wanted to say. Ramble on, ramble on…
Wahey, more kitties in the video:

i told you before and i tell you again: it seems that cardiff music guys are all mad for cats (poor robin!)! it s a strange thing – but it is much more strange that u keep the names in head (as i do). did u ever read SNOW CRASH (neil stephenson)? we should think hard about how to make money with information like that. LOL. i m not talking about personal information from people (would never talk about – u know what i mean). but just cat´s names, fave plants and stuff.
MARK FOLEY WAS RIGHT!!! *jumping around in my kitchen while listening to fotl*
