Is this even newer than "Intensely Radioactive"?

Erm, no. Hate to be an anal-retentive ex-Industrial weenie (even though I am (-: ), but Cab Vol released their early stuff on (a) Rough Trade (the majority of it); (b) Factory (2 cuts on the "FAC 2 A Factory Sampler" EP); and (c) Les Disques De Crepescule in Belgium.

Indeed. Both "The Conversation" and "Intensely Radioactive" are brilliant, at times. Great to be able to go back to the Cabs, as I'd given up on him/them almost 10 years ago, after "Microphonies". They were something to see live way back when, that's for sure (October 20th 1980, to be exact). The noise ... the sinsemilla buds ... the Percodans ... it all comes rushing back to me now! :-) - Greg
