I can see how they got Spin Doctors from Chumbawamba. 90s 1 hit wonders. I'm not going to see the Two Princes guys for a dose of good natured anarcho pop/punk/folk.

Maybe they're just monitoring's Flex's listening habits. Dave Matthews, for fans of The Exploited and Elton John.

Precious is so much better than A Town Called Malice.

Wow, "Destroyer" is quite a trip. "Fixing" is a cool rocker, I'm pretty sure I've heard it before. Love 'em.

Agreed Malice wins everyday, Precious still does have that sexy sound to it. Remember coming across it when first listening to Snap! Just sounded so different and whilst it's not even in my top 20 Jam tracks, it's fairly solid in my eyes.

I love "Precious" and where "Malice" clearly stole it's backbone from "You Cant Hurry Love" "Precious" was Weller's attempt at "Papas Got A Brand New Pigbag". Both are great and it was magic back in the day having both sides played on T.O.T.Ps.

But for the Ray Davies like social commentary "Malice" will always hold a special place for me.
