Hi, Don't know if this point has been made before but the skam 0161 album was in aid of repairing manchester after the IRA bomb. I thought the Bola track 01706 had a real shocked numbness to it- like most of the emotion was being implied. I thought to myself 'poor old Bola muat have been caught up in the bomb' and I then realised that 17/06/96 was the day after the IRA blew up Manchester city centre, so Bola was obviously closer to the action than he wanted to be and this track was his reaction. Richard.
