Coincidentally, the mother of the child who I introduced "Man Gave Names to All the Aminals" to, once told me that back in the late '80s her Dad's car broke down on the hard shoulder of a Swiss autoroute and as they were waiting for the repair van she found a dusty, discarded cassette of 'Black - The HitZ!!" in the central reservation and when they got back underway some hours later she insisted her Dad play it on the in-car stereo (Pioneer, probably).

She said that it was a very vivid memory of being young and bored out of her mind and faintly depressed.

Yet faintly transfixed and curious.

See, I write all this stuff and, it's literally like no one cares. bawl

Is this about one of those Arctic sharks that live for 100s of years?

Have we ever done a China Crisis album?

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Thu Jul 04, 2024 8:11 pm

It is over.

It was harmless enough but I didn't feel very involved at any point.
