This song is the most vanilla crap I've ever heard. Pete is the best thing on it.

Let's face it, post Bunnymen, they all got into crap projects/bands.

The whole was so much greater than the individual parts.

I submit that Will solo is pretty bad ass.

I would like to hear it. His sound check sounded like manna from heaven.

That's a pretty sweeping statement. The Colourfield album with Pete (on some tracks) wasn't post-Bunnymen, it was released in '85 when he was still with the Bunnymen. If you're referring to their projects outside the Bunnymen you should listen to some of the following:
Pete: Wild Swans' "Revolutionary Spirit", Sex Gods/Balcony Dogs, DTC (there is some live stuff knocking around)
Will: Glide, Family of God's "Follow the Lights", The Serpents, Reverb, Wild Swans live
Mac: "Candleland", "Mysterio"
Les: Wild Swans today
Jake (and occasionally Will): Bom
The fine Mac-less Reverberation and the even finer "Prove Me Wrong" and "Inside Me, Inside You" singles from the same period.

There's a lot of good stuff there that's really worth hearing.

DTC (there is some live stuff knocking around)

where is it, please? :surprised:

Will's solo stuff is probably better than the new Bunnymen stuff. If you throw in the Serpents, it's a no-brainer.

If you can find the Serpents album, get it! It's a great album. I wish they would make another album but seeing how there was about 40 people on the first album I doubt it's going to happen.

Indeed they were.

Who the fuck dug up Diva?

I have to disagree about the crap side projects; Electrafixion's "Burned" is on heavy rotation on my iPod. They should have kept that band going for at least another album.

They should put some of those tunes in their live set.

Indeed. That would rock.
