Good band

I saw them early on, about 2001, but I'd love to have seen them again later - the first album isn't bad but it's my least favourite (which is unusual for me, I'm usually the early-stuff-is-better guy)

Axes is my favourite of theirs because it's so, like, audacious in its structure

The series of instrumentals into the Cohen cover is one of my favourite sequences on a rock album

So in between "Bells" and "The Partisan"?

Serious question: is the album title supposed to be the plural for axis or ax?

Ya. I guess it's a lot of instrumentals! I love this approach. I think the title means both

'business or otherwise' is one of the genuinely most out-there compositions by a uk rock band in living memory
