it's great to see the whole political context put centre-stage. How desperately we could do with a band like that now given the shit-swamp we're mired in... still searching.... Me and my friends were in a band in part inspired by Disco Inferno. We didn't have samplers but very much went for the live triggered midi thing. I remember seeing them at the Purcell Rooms gig and cheering the loudest with my friend and band mate Jeremy so that we could hear ourselves on the Mixing It broadcast. I'm listening to the 5 ep's now on Spotify. I've never heard this stuff before. Extraordinarily good. They came at great moment. The hatred of Britpop we felt acutely. I remember screaming at Damon Albarn when I saw him arm in arm with Justine Frischmann in Camden "listen to some Can and Disco Inferno, you cunts". Funnily enough I was with my friend Francis Patterson aka Frankie Poullain at the time (we worked in the postroom of a travel agency together) Frankie went on to be the bass player of The Darkness. Clearly he too should have listened to Disco Inferno. I didn't feel the nineties were as awful as others here did. Not compared to now. Let us not forget that besides the Post Rock thing we had Jungle, good techno/trance dance music, Aphex, trip hop, and good hip hop. In fact outside of guitar band based pop and rock things were pretty fucking great musically. I long for the innovative
