It's been more than 2 years since the last album release (
The Life Pursuit) from our favorite band from
Glasgow and something more than 12 years since their debut back in 1996 with
Tigermilk. Unfortunately there are no news of any new material coming our way but we'll have to settle with a new collection featuring tracks they dug out of the
BBC archives. The collection features some of their early recordings from 1996 up to 2001 and is accompanied by a second disc containing tracks performed on December 21, 2001 at the
Belfast Christmas show. Full track listing follows (courtesy of
Pitchfork) along with one of our favorite tracks,
Dog On Wheels, which is however not featured in this collection.
