So, new album, new musical appropriations.
Let's Go To War: Tchaikovsy's Slavonic March and Grieg's In The Hall of the Mountain King Mayakovsky: O Katrina! - Black Lips Any more?

I think this was suggested earlier (I forget who, sorry you if you're reading!):
Walk Me to the Bridge: Phil Lynott - Yellow Pearl

The intro to Last Jet To Moscow sounds more than a bit like Chariots of Fire

Oh, yes, "Between the Clock..." is very Prefab Sprout, not because of the music, but because Gartside's voice sounds so much like Paddy McAloon's. Only a tiny, tiny step away from downright kitsch.

There's a definite Beatles vibe on Blistered Mirrors' chorus - can't think what song in particular but hope it will come to me!

Somewhere between Mean Mr Mustard and Hey Bulldog for me

The music in the chorus of Walk Me To The Bridge oddly reminds me of the music for the verses of You Love Us.

Also the intro to Black Square appears to be a 'homage' (coughs) to Flock of Seagulls 'Wishing'. At least they didn't replicate the hairstyles!

Walk Me To The Bridge sounds like Push by The Cure. Try it.

one of the riffs in Lets Go to war reminds me of Faith No More at around 40 seconds after "broken subjects" it only last a couple of seconds
