FUCK THE PINK INDIANS



So i see that 'fresh' from their triumphal appearance supporting STEVE IGNORANT at Shepard's bush last November FLUX OF PINK INDIANS have just played another gig.
The recent gig was a pair up of FLUX and THE SUB HUMANS, now if there was ever a gig that needed the 'smell test' (copyright zerohr productions) applied to it it was his one, because the threat of possible dirty scum-germ contamination caught from one or more toothless filth wrapped crusty audience member was a very real and present danger, and leaving a gig stinking of others malodorous sweat is sadly, not unknown.

The only other odour that i can think of that might of filled the air that night was the smell of money. "But what do you mean the smell of money? FLUX are a 'right on' CRASS band, aren't they?" i hear you ask.
Well, the smell of cold hard cash that surrounds FLUX comes from being the very people who caused us to suffer that dreadfully annoying Icelandic pixie freak BYORK by putting out her records on their 'one little Indian' record label and selling untold millions of the vinyl buggers in the process.

That's not to say i resent the band earning money by succeeding at the hard job of selling an original singer/music to the usually Conservative general public, just the opposite in fact, well done to them, and i don't care if they are/were anarchists or not, never did.
No, my problem is that i have never liked BYORK'S music. I never liked THE SUGARCUBES and i don't like what to me was just a solo continuation of the same dull 'quirky' off -beat tunes.

That and the question why did they reform? After all, just because they could reform, it doesn't mean they should.
Speaking of the 'tube disaster' single (?!), in the poem at the end of the 'tube disaster' song there is a line that says "i cast my stone deep into the field of man", now traditionally in literature a 'stone' meant a testicle, so are we to infer that a FLUX member is throwing one of his bollocks at people? if not, where is he 'casting' it i hear you ask? 'Deep into the field of man' that's where! But just what is 'mans deep field ? we must be told!

I will leave you with the question of just what were FLUX throwing their pink testicle at or in? (hold that mental thought) if you know, then please don't hesitate to contact your super duper soaraway ZEROHOUR at once.
