That explains it. I could barely hear what they were saying, so all
misquotes are mine. I always felt that the film of Crash was Cronenberg's
weakest post Videodrome film (bar Butterfly) and not just because of the
usual film adaptation "problems".

Well, the Chix do benefit from production work courtesy Mego... (whose mix
of their B-52s cover was one of the best of the year). And hey, what's
more IDM than selling limited edition clothing on your web-site? The
Normal's version of "Warm Leatherette" is one of many excellent tracks on
the Andy Weatherall _9 o'clock Drop_ mix CD (finally, something good to
come out of the 80s revival!).
