Nov 6, 2008 - Before "The Grid" went 'commercial'... Wonderful track - Thanks for sharing!

Nov 7, 2008 - They actually went pretty commercial on their debut album, check their "A Beat Called Love" single from 1990!

Nov 7, 2008 - Oooh yes (I just checked that track out on You Tube) - That is VERY commercial. That makes "456" even more brilliant (IMHO), as it contains less obviously (blatently?) commercial tracks than "Electric Head" and "Evolver" do. I guess my original comment was provoked by comparing tracks such as "Swamp Thing" and "Rollercoaster" with "Figure of 8" and "Boom". The latter two are so much more creative and inspired than the former two (again, IMHO).

Nov 8, 2008 - Yeah, they started poppy then went less commercial (but "Crystal Clear" did get to no.27 in the charts) only to strike back with banjo pop which got them a top 3 smash hit, which in turn led to more banjo tracks like 2 Cowboys or the bloody Rednex (although even The Prodigy got on the banjo tip with their "We Are The Ruffest" track).
