You may have noticed before, that Adam as started a grime music based blog.
It seems our colleague and friend has fallen gravely ill, and in the delerium of his fever has come to decide that he is black.
I urge you not to worry, Earlier today Joe and I agreed to perform an intervention. Joe will strap him to his bed for a week or two, during which time we will play the Winnebago Deal album - "Dead Gone" - on repeat while cutting the eyes out of photos of 50 cent. He may cry, and it may seem cruel but we assure you its for his own good.
Recently, he and Joe moved to Preston where the only residents are Tramps, stabbists, performing arts students, people who clamp other people's cars, graffiti vandals, benefit cheats, chavs, complusive gamblers, drunks and general members of the criminal underclasses.
I reckon he probably already has a switchblade if you frisked him, and the other day he drove past and I instantly thought, "Oh no, a drug dealer is here." until I noticed it was Adam at the wheel.
You understand that this behaviour must be stopped in its early stages, like a nasty bout of bowel cancer.
We will keep you updated.

Inefficent lighting saved The Hardcore Effect
For sometime now, we've been considering the future of the blog.
All of us are busy chaps these days, and the recent and prolonged security issues didn't help, then there was concern that we actually had nothing left to say. This infact maybe true, its possible we will never publish another politically charged statement again, we have after all made our point.
However, something rather odd changed what we assumed to be the inevitable outcome.
People love to complain, about anything, no matter how trivial and pointless. The people who set to work on us, in truth, only really upset people and organisations we don't know or deal with.
You see, a few times a year, the town I reside in hosts a series of events and festivals. In the open area to the side of my apartment, there has been on occasion some incredibly powerful lighting erected. Something of an annoyance I'm sure you'll agree. I could and maybe should complain.
Yet, being someone with a brain, I realise that its very difficult to hold a cheese tasting or a flower arranging session in the dark, and so I like to hang some pieces of material over my windows to solve this, I like to call them "The Curtains" and they are fantastic.
This turned into something of a metaphor. You see the people we upset, who in turn upset a series of other people, could simply have closed their curtains. We don't force you to read something you disagree with, if it really upsets you that much.. maybe put the TV on eh?
Of course, everyone should read things they disagree with, you could be missing a trick and if little else it helps you keep an open mind and a balanced view.
So, we'll give it one last crack of the whip. Third time lucky eh?
