It's not Kate Moross what did the artwork. Apparently it's a man named Daniel Has Potential.

Very interesting stuff - I *love* the map of the album he did, I wish that had been included in the album as a poster or something!

just saw them in a ridiculously sweaty zodiac/carling academy/whatever it is now: by the end they were topless, and all I could think was 'oh if only Kate were here!'
they were ace, btw.

the main songwriter joined connan mockasin for the completely incredible 'please turn me into the snat/forever dolphin love' album. then left connan mockasin who subsequently put out a lamentable record last year. absolutely no idea on the others

That explains so much about Connan Mockasin

that album last year was so pathetic, and after such a truly classic record

I know this is going to sound uncharitable, but they're one of those bands I'm *so glad* never put out a followup. After the amount of hype, and the impossibility of sustaining it, and how many brilliant bands get savaged for failing to reach the giddy heights of their debut - I just think it's so much better that they put out one such perfect record, and then disappeared. It's just a fantastic artefact of a moment. I don't want to know what happened next.
