“This cover makes me laugh, but I think its tone is an indication of different times and expectations. When a city has produced bands like The Buzzcocks and Magazine, The Fall, Joy Division and New Order and less well-known but equally great acts like Ludus, the Blue Orchids and The Distractions within a five year window yet the scene is described as apathetic, you get the feeling they really didn't realise how good they had it musically.”
