I regularly drive through New Mills on my way to Manchester and I cannot go through without singing, “no frills, handy for the hills, that’s the way you spell New Mills!” at the top of my voice.

HMHB the best lyric's of any band ever. I've got every album by them. The best one is Get your Fuckin'hedge cut it's a classic album.

Favourite album for me has to be Achtung Bono. Not a song on there that doesn't make me smile in some way

I wish John had lived to hear Oblong Of Dreams.

[@stevencarrigan1987]
