Maybe.
I keep on thinking that on the first track (Every Bloody Emporor)Hammill's going to start singing A Windmill in Old Amsterdam by Ronnie Hilton.Yikes!
The only weak point that I can find is that the last(live-in-the-studio) track(On the Beach)seems to go nowhere.
Hammill's choir-boy style of vocals are not much in evidence either.
I sound like an ungrateful s*d
Only small gripes.Fantastic to have them back.

Do 'The Stanley' otherwise I'll thrash you with some rhubarb.

Ive been really enjoying this album all week, my favourites are Every Bloody Emperor and Nutter Alert, its great to see that Hammill hasnt lost his sneering tone. Jaxons sax is just brilliant throughout.

The second Cd is tad hard to stomach though, a couple of tracks sound like all the musicians are all playing a different tune but i guess i still have a long way to go, to appreciate that kind of chaotic jazz-fusion.
Don't hate me
I'm not special like you
