RE: [KLF] Re: America No More (OT) Massive Attack
The new Massive Attack is good. I didn't like Mezzanine and while the latest is a long way from the hip hop sounds of the early days it is a late night, whispered, delicate sound collage. Worth getting. Apparently it is only 3D on this recording, no daddy G. On the war subject it has been claimed that Irag has invaded all five of its neighbours, however the US since the WWII has invaded Korea, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Panama, Grenada, Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia and leant military advisors to military coups in Nicaragua, Chile and Burma. America is the only country to have used a nuclear weapon in anger and used chemical weapons in large numbers (agent orange in Vietnam). I think those facts speak for themselves.

I'm not sure if it happened in the US as I've only seen a few examples of their releases with the name change online. Is the new album worth getting? I like everything else they've done. It would be cool to hear Jimmy remix of one their new tracks.

Now, just this afternoon, a DJ on Radio Scotland announced that he was going to play "Rock the Casbah" by the Clash, but "wasn't allowed to". He played "I Fought the Law" instead. Have I missed something, or have the Powers That Be (either the BBC or the government, or both) brought out the same ruling, twelve years later, banning the same tunes again? If so, there's been no reporting of it on the news. Sorry if this seems trivial, but considering we're not actually at war yet (and please God never will be), it seems amazing to me that DJs are being banned from playing certain records in mere ANTICIPATION of conflict!

The Germans used Chemical weapons in WW1 they used Chlorine gas!! "used chemical
weapons in large numbers (agent orange in Vietnam). I think those facts speak for themselves."
Check the history books! US did not use them first. The Germans did in the trenches in about 1914-17 app. I just watched a program on the history channel this week on this fact. The Japanees also had chemical weapons and did Biological testing in Manchuria after they invaded China In the same war.

I've noticed that all the personal opinions on this list concerning the imminent war are from the western members of this group. I take it there aren't any Iraqi's on the list - does that mean that The KLF (aka the jamms, furthermore known as the reason for this list) didn't release their music in the far east?
