Addendum: do you have the "final" version of CZ? I know there's a lot of copies floating around in various stages of completion and I'm not sure which one I have.
I think the most recent copy I obtained was via Marky, who played around with stuff (as is his wont) and included some additional takes and backing tracks that we had each accumulated thru various sources.

I'm listening to this band, Maxïmo Park, because I heard they were influenced by Magazine, but they just sound like the clutch of neo-post-punk bands from the 2000's.
They are from up the road to me and are terrible. The Futureheads were cut from the same cloth and were better.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

I didn't like what I heard of the Futureheads. It seemed like they thought every single line had to end with a four part harmony.

This is totally perfect New Wave pop:

If you ever get time and think of it, could you post the tracklist so's I may compare? I'm not sure if I have that version.

That was pretty decent. I wonder what song I was listening to.

I was wrong (sorta). Marky's work-up of CZ is the regular running order of Levene's boot. The outtakes set is separate and the same as this: http://darkcircleroom4.blogspot.ca/2014 ... oughs.html

There are two slightly different vinyl boots of CZ. One of them has slightly longer takes of a couple of takes. I have one of the vinyls and the upload is taken from that. A lot of what is floating around the web is sourced from mp3's.

I think the Futureheads had something to say. Maximo Park, with about three songs that I like, fall into the category of middle tier landfill indie.

I want this to be an official genre. It'd make things much easier for me.

The Pigeon Detectives, a shit band I very much love, are lower tier landfill indie.
