Some of our early work was two minutes twenty when it actually came out on vinyl, very, very, very short. Sometimes if you made a three-minute record they would make you do an edited version for radio, particularly in America.

People often forget this - a vinyl album could only contain a maximum of 20 minutes per side!
Our first record didn't come out on vinyl, so I think that might have had something to do with actually being in a position to make sure that it came out in vinyl this time. It sounds way better.

It's a breath of different air because creative input didn't come from members of Vinyl. The Rondo Brothers came in and just mutated a bunch of our songs.

The four building blocks of the universe are fire, water, gravel and vinyl.
It's also ironic that in the old days of tape and tape hiss and vinyl records and surface noise, we were always trying to get records louder and louder to overcome that.
I hardly ever listen to any of our old stuff now. Once the songs have been recorded and put on to vinyl they become someone else's entertainment, not mine.
