the demo tape
It is on Manic Hedgehog, the cassette the band sold themselves in Oxford record shops before anyone signed them, and that is the only recording of it anybody has. It was never re-recorded, never released, and the band have never discussed it.
The title is the sort of thing a group of teenagers calls a song, and the song stayed a teenager's song.
1992
three nights
One of the three opened a show and one closed it, which is more responsibility than the song ever got again.
