http://www.tangents.co.uk/tangents/main/2001/june/animals.html for
something on ATS. I found very little else on the web when I was writing
it... trawl through a bit of Belle & Seb at the start of the article.

Anyone who spots a rogue copy of Workshy please let me know because I
cant find it anywhere!

Unforunately, my Stateside-self didn't see them at Spitz or anywhere
else ever.
I'm just psyched because Clinic is coming to Boston next month!

Their first album, _Workshy_, got a domestic release and should be in
used
bins at good stores. The other two are import-only but still available
via
mail order like Siren Disc.

I suppose so. And I guess we should throw in related bands like, say,
all of
Tim Keegan's work, and perhaps Strangelove. Thinking about it, the last
Departure Lounge (Tim Keegan) album, _Out Of Here_, is definitely
BA-like.

The wonders of the internet. Just downloaded some MP3's, let's take a
listen...
I don't know that I'd compare them to the Aero's, but it's fun stuff.

Oh, and I remembered another band I'd compare: Able Tasmans, an amazing
New
Zealand band who could also distribute a "Are you or have you ever been
a 
member" t-shirt.
