Trying to get hold of Nick, my mastering engineer, who fell ill on Friday, to see if he has recovered at all. No answer on any of the numbers I have for him. Meanwhile my songs remain in an audio twilight zone and time ticks away because… 18 days 20 hours and 51 minutes to go… At this point I just want to sidetrack a moment to mention... Andy is a Corporatist. (Mindless Version) This is a piece of ranting poetry by Attila the Stockbroker and this is how it came to be joined at the hip with the music of Mindless Violence. Attila was at the time fending off criticism that regardless of the socialist content of his material, it was ineffectual because he preached to the converted. Whether he was or not is not the point here but this sort of situation is obviously best avoided. As Andy is a Corporatist is an anti-fascist rant, Attila felt that the best place for it to get exposure was within the Oi subculture, who due to their apolitical stance still seemed vulnerable to the influence of right wing and fascist organisations. So when he and the Neurotics were offered a chance to have a track on an Oi compilation he was thrilled we were not. Obviously this gave Attila the chance to prove he was not ‘preaching to the choir’ But the Neurotics were not happy to have a track on this compilation because we wanted nothing to do with Oi.
