In years to come one of my claims to fame my be that I had heard of Magoo before they were signed to Chemikal Underground. Before Chemikal Underground laid out their Home Sweet Home mat, they were on Norwich's Noisebox which came in handy being from Norwich and all. It certainly will have kept bus fares to the studio down. Noisebox have released an album of their pre-Chemikal Underground releases, many of which are out of print. It'll be their Ten Rapid/Incesticide then. On Chemikal Underground they've done singles aplenty but most importantly they've put out the Soateramic Sounds Of..... album. We'll call it eclectic. A-Z And Back Again and Red Lines (Are Fine) are the singles the record has spawned. The highlight for me though is the solemn Queen Of The 8-Bus Singers. Catch them live and be subjected. They're made up of Andrew, Hodge, Dave and Owen. Guess the rest: NP: Did you
name yourselves after the visually impaired old gentleman? NP: I drive
just like him. Do any of you? NP: Have you
heard about Disney getting a bollocking for remaking Mr Magoo with
Leslie Nielsen? According to certain Americans its not politically
correct. NP: Do you
ever get confused with Mogwai because of your name? NP: What's
this about you having a split single with them? (SABBATH!) What song?
NP: What will
you be doing with Chemikal Underground record wise? NP: Live you
have covered Sebadoh. What's your favourite Lou Barlow stuff? NP: Who are
you influenced by? NP: How did
you come to be featured on the first Rebellious Jukebox single? NP: Are you
mates with Andy from Totally Wired? NP: What did
you think of the other three bands on the single? (Waddle, Action
Jacks, Soma Ride) NP: What do
you think of Arab Strap? NP: Do you
realise how good the Red Lines single sounds played at 33 rpm? NP: When will
the Noisebox compilation CD (DNA?) be coming out? NP: What do
you know about Noisebox and financial problems? NP: Are you
going to appear on a Hummy & Joey EP in the near future? NP: Do many
people think you're from Glasgow? NP: Is Puff
Daddy satan? NP: Do you
have a message for Lando? NP: Who's your
favourite Simpsons character? NP: Is Norwich
