If you felt you didn't give up any part of your soul when you went big, why is the first song on Know Your Enemy - the reaction against that middle ground - called "Found that Soul"?
I win, Jimbo. Send me a free Blackstar amp and all is forgiven.

How about this - KYE gives us some of Sean's best drumming across the whole discography. There's loads of inventive passages, heavy and powerful stuff but also graceful and restrained sections. Pretty much every song has him doing something interesting with the drums. I think overall Sean is a much better drummer than he's ever given credit for (and that's not accounting for the other musical contributions he makes) but this album in particular really showcases his talent I feel.

And glad packages are finally arriving. And oh, number four https://www.officialcharts.com/charts/albums-chart/

Aye, made No.4 which is a great result on paper. It sold 93 copies more than the album in 5th place apparently haha, very close.

We are still waiting on this section, it's gonna be badass. But while you wait perhaps you would care to peruse the lyrics for 'Underdogs' and 'Your Love Is Not Enough', from the album 'Send Away The Tigers'.

Assuming a unit price of £30 that's just over £150,000, minus production costs, all the remastering costs, etc and any limited advertising. Doesn't feel like it leaves a huge amount for the band in terms of income.

5,519 sales isn't that many at all to be fair, but then album sales aren't as high as they used to be sadly, largely due to streaming now. It'll probably sell a few hundred copies next week and not even make the top 100 in the chart again, as this was its first appearance in the top 100 for 21 years!!

what's wrong? I cannot quote!
Anyway: After a few tries I created the ideal Know Your Enemy Reissue tracklist: 1. Masses Against the Classes 2. Intravenous Agnostic 3. Found That Soul 4. The Convalescent 5. My Guernica 6. Dead Martyrs 7. Close My Eyes 8. Just a Kid 9. Door to the River That's actually not a bad album. Of course Close My Eyes would need a remastering, but...

Oh come on now Donk, at least throw "Baby Elian" in! The new mix is a stunner.
