    I was in a pizza restaurant in Tenby recently and Nicky Wire was opposite me.
    He didn’t have the shades on and looked like a geography teacher.

    Great band, my second favourite from the 90s I think after Suede. Dog man star and the holy bible are masterpiece albums.

    Never when I bought (had it bought for me😂) 'Generation Terrorists' at 10 years old did I think this band would go on to release 15 albums! There's been plenty of highs and plenty of lows but that's what it's all about ain't it? Stay beautiful troops and troopettes 💋

      @@Robcatist well technically my Uncle did haha. He's the one I have to thank for my musical experiences, he was absolutely immersed in music and going to gigs and was well known on the scene in Glasgow. Among bouncers and pub landlords mainly so from an early age I was able to see some quality bands. Most I don't really remember to be honest, my memory took quite a hit after the mid to late 90's...🤫😂

    I listened to some of the "Know Your Enemy" remaster and it is a really good re-issue. They didn't need to remix "Dead Martyrs" though...I like the old mix better...more "real" sounding but the remix is still damn good. Time's taking it's toll on the older artists though...age is creeping up fast, especially when you're winding down earlier at night!. I can sympathise with them!.

    Controversial comment but these rare interviews often feel like such missed opportunities with the generic questions asked, especially the last question about who they're listening to now.
