UNKLE, Oval, Spring Heel Jack, Luke Vibert, thats it. There's a
japanese CD with most of the tracks on it (I think it misses a
b-side) that I'm currently looking for, anyone...?

Saw Rome playing in Rough Trade (Covent Garden) the other weekend,
thought they were ok, but not really in the same league as Tortoise.
They have an eponymous album on Thrill Jockey from last year, which I
dig out once in a while, but 'Millions now living...' it isn't. Still
worth checking out if you're into this post-rock thang. Plus one of
the tracks is recorded by John McEntire & mixed by Designer for extra
spotter points...

PS I'm being really unfair by judging them against possibly my
favourite album from last year. It's actually quite good.
