We know there is more to life than the music of the Bunnymen. Talk about those other bands here.

Ive heard that from a few people - I'll give it a go, he's abit of a legend
Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.

This song gets a lot of praise - I think it is one of the lesser tracks:

I like Puppy Toy, it has a real Barry Adamson feel:

That's the song they played on the New Music show last night. I hadn't
heard of them before until reading this thread, so I paid attention. It
sounded good...

Downloaded the album on Pirate Bay...
still wrapping my head around it.

I do miss Martina Topley-Bird's vocals, though.

Tricky is a hack. Some of the best pop songwriters are hacks.

Tricky: 'I've found my calling. It's helping the youth'

After tiring of life in California, Bristol's trip hop king is back in Europe, determined to help disadvantaged teenagers in Paris find their voice. Nick Duerden meets Tricky

Finally saw Tricky. Shame it was an outdoor show with absolutely shit sound and that the set lasted only 45 min. "Ace of Spades" was ace, though.

So in naming his eighth album Mixed Race in another allusion to his heritage, Tricky seems to be returning to his old stomping ground again. But the comparisons go beyond nomenclature, since Mixed Race also has a cover version as one of its pivotal tracks, which reveals plenty about the differences between the three albums as well. Lead single ‘Murder Weapon’ is a cover of Echo Minott’s 1992 dancehall hit; yet where Tricky tore apart Public Enemy’s ‘Black Steel’ on Maxinquaye and Kylie’s ‘Slow’ on Knowle West Boy, here ‘Murder Weapon’ is much more a straight-up cover on what is the most straight-up album Tricky has produced.
