This release featured the sleeve design used for the final batch of albums.
Bunker Soldiers features a chorus that actually spells out the title 'BUNKER
SOLDIERS' as random letters and the same letters translated into numbers. Almost also featured as the B-Side to the single Electricity
and the album version was used on the third release of the single. Mystereality features saxophone by Martin Cooper. Electricity is the same version featured on the third
single release. The Messerschmitt Twins takes its title from a nickname
for Andy and Paul. The phrase popped into Andy's head during the night prompting
him to write a song about it. It was actually while researching Messerschmitts
that Andy spotted a reference to the Enola Gay leading to fresh inspiration. Messages is the original version and not the Mike Howlett
produced single version. Julia's Song dates back to Andy and Paul's time in The
Id and features lyrics by Julia Kneale who was also in The Id at the time. Red Frame/White Light was inspired by a telephone box
used by the band outside The Railway Inn public house on the Wirral. Dancing is an experimental piece whose unusual sound
was created using Dalek I Love You's Kawai synth. Pretending To See The Future was written about being
in the music industry and specifically about signing a record deal. |
