reforming[edit]

Is there ANY chance of this band reforming?? I miss them and their music. Is there anything similar to them out there? Are any of the individual member's later projects anything like PM? Tanru 03:39, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Other releases and misc stuff[edit]

1. They also released an EP, (Please Keep Me Safe) in 1997 and a 4-track CD single (or EP if you will) "Bad Light" in 1996. I know 'cos I own them.

2. "Post-punk" is an idiosyncratic description of the nature of the band, to say the least. They were post-punk in the sense that they formed after the Ramones self-titled LP, but that's about all. Not easy to label, but some mix of ambient, pop, electronic and folk gets closer to their sound. It would probably better to introduce the article by just saying 'they were an Australian band' and going on to categorise the music in the body of the article.

3. The link to Candy is to a band that (I could be pretty confident) Sussex has never been in. It seems there needs to be a disambiguation page.

4. A 7-track remix EP/mini-LP called Reworkings was their last release (in the tradition of remix records, it was released under PM's name even though someone else messed around with each of the tracks). Don't know if it was 1999 or 2000, but somewhere around there. Notable for indie big names Lee Ranaldo, Mogwai and Mark Eitzel each having a go at remixing a PM song.

Knowing very little about HTML, I haven't upgraded the article directly on any of these points.211.30.154.175 15:14, 7 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
