Actually I always saw it as a joke, or filler, not meant to be taken serious. I mean ca'mon. It's an orb based record label right?

Yeah. Mindless Drug Hoover's (of Volume and Orb remix fame) Fuck Off! comes to mind...it's a joke, people. Or is elephant poop *really* that much funnier?

I think reducing Mindless' work to the category of just "joke" is doing it a disservice. I think there is real substance in his compositions. I used the advice of "Fuck Off" when negotiating a new contract with my landlord, and I have rarely heard such an accurate, and moving, account of the oh-so-typical clubbing encounter that Mindless sums up in the brilliant line "Sorry about the shag, but I changed my mind" But then I find myself chuckling to Kyle Zeto when it comes on and I'm too lazy to change it, so maybe I should be seeking help ;) jon P.S. sorry for the off-topic post - next time I promise I'll stay on-topic and slag someone off / post HTML / voice my disgust at this list's denizens. -- "Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard." - H.L.
