We 168 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 8: need a weird name. We need a name that says 169 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 8: we're not punk, we're not rock, we're not discovered. And 170 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 8: so we frankly picked the most preposterous name we could 171 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 8: think of, because it didn't matter. We were going to 172 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 8: do one gig and here we are forty five years later. 173 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 4: Tell us about recording the album Junk Culture and that's 174 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 4: that was nineteen eighty four. 175 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 8: Yes, indeed, well, and the crazy thing was that this 176 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 8: was going to be our fifth album and we'd only 177 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 8: been going for five years, so we were cranking the mouse. 178 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 8: We've come off the back of a very weird and 179 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 8: wonderful album called Dazzleships, which kind of scared people. It 180 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 8: was perhaps a little bit experimental, bit ahead of its time. 181 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 8: Now it's considered the masterpiece, but at the time it 182 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 8: nearly killed our career. So we were how can we say, 183 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 8: I think we were being a little bit more conventional 184 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 8: air for in our songwriting. But it didn't stop having fun. 185 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 8: We went all over the place to record it, I mean, 186 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 8: but particularly we were in air Monsrat in the Caribbean, 187 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 8: which was amazing. 188 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 2: Wow. 189 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 8: But yeah. We we finally had to come back to 190 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 8: Belgium and Holland and mix it in the middle of 191 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 8: the winter, which was a bit of adam but we 192 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 8: had three huge hit singles off the album and it 193 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 8: really really established ourselves. 194 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 3: Is a Doctor Mons That is incredible.
