Curious to see how this new lineup is going to sound... so far all the previous incarnations have been great in their own particular ways.
In passing, David Eugene Edwards put a track up on Soundcloud from the forthcoming Wovenhand album which seems to me to have something of a Crime influence... I guess he'll fit in pretty well.

Holy reunions, Chicago: Crime is playing here the same night as PiL, New Order and the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion.

ZS - the club (the Esplanade) in WoD does not exist any more - I managed to go there in 1993 but it was probably in its last days.

Nothing new, no, but I was hoping for remastered sound on the early tracks, even though I haven't seen that being mentioned.

anyone seen them? should I shell out for it next week? I used to love this band although admittedly some of that was probably mick harvey-driven.

god dammit - they played in Haacht (10km from me) last week and NOW I find out?https://crimeandthecitysolution.org(with quite a different lineup)

thanks for that as i probably wouldn't have known they were playing 1km from me in September otherwise. i am expecting that to be very poorly attended.
