Feelin that Thought they'd shoehorned a couple of old white grandpa's in there for the video, but that's actually them ! Old school south london gangsters, I know exactly the type and the sort of boozers they would drink in, lol. They've got sick flows and their voices and styles really compliment each other.
Thems the ones…short one is Irish he been calling out Bugzy Malone threatening him with his IRA contacts lol…bare hints in their tunes.
There's a pub near where I grew up called 'The Fanny on the Hill' @remembercolinlee will probs know it, which was notorious for wannabe gangsters and NF meetings. It then morphed into an unofficial HQ for the BNP in the 80's and 90's There was another one called the 'New Tiger's head' a stones throw from my old house in Lee Green in Lewisham. It was a also a few hundred yards from Lewisham Police station where loads of top CID were based. The irony of that place was that it was often full of gangsters, criminals, drug barons and CID all drinking together lol Exactly the sort of places I could imagine these two drinking in.

Incredible decade for music really. Across loads of different genres I remember that Spiritualized album came packaged as a Pill with the album notes written out like a medication info sheet. You had to pop the CD out of a blister pack. Genius I ditched all of my CD covers years ago when I was living in a van, but I bet a unopened copy of that Album is worth a fair bit these days
Yeah I'll check it out. Were you into Spiritualized's earlier incarnation Spacemen 3 ? I was a proper trip head back then and saw them play, off my tits at the ULU. I saw Spiritualized play at the Brixton Academy, the light show was ****in epic. Smoke machines, Lasers and LSD is a a combo I'd defo recommend lol.
