...was the track that trailed D&RS so, if "Rapture" is this album's "Implant" you can draw your own conclusions: pretty excited I am!

I think all the fun in "Asteroid" is in the opening and the breaks when everyone yells the title.
Implant is supposed to be in 5/4 time, but that shouldn't be much trouble for real musicians...

Kazoo..?? Which rare unreleased version do you have?
All I can hear is that delightfully abrasive Geordie riff.

They opened with The Hum at the Forum in 2008 and I thought it fell a bit flat. Wanted them to
roar out of the traps but instead they sort of wandered out with their slippers on.

They should open with a frigging new song if they have the balls!

Am I in a minority thinking Asteroid is frankly bollocks? Don't understand the excitement this
song seems to generate.

To be honest I don't think Song and Dance is one of the strongest songs on FD (which I think is definitely one of the
best Joke albums). That 2-note part in the middle that sounds like a kazoo playing, when Jaz sings "spit hit the stick"--what the hell is that?
I vote for The Hum as the surprise opener!
