Yeah i mean i mainly base my views of them on a live gig in sheffield
from about 2.5years ago... but i do enjoy their albums (albeit not
often).... they were absolutely
stunning live imo.. but i can imagine how it could fall apart lie or
just be boring..
...and then Jimi Tenor came on and did a live set which was pretty
hilarious and
then Tom Jenkinson came on and played the most amazing fretless bass,
and danced
to his drum fills this was the first time i heard what eventually became
'feed me wierd
things'. Its hard to remember just how new squarepusher sounded back
then, not
long ago at all really .....Pretty good night all in all really ;-)

maybe FM Einhart will inject some emotion and grooove into the mix...and
some dirt,
panasonic lack dirt (not that 'clean' digital dirt they use ;-)

whatever
