Dawn of The Replicants - Chaos in an Inkwell: So Far So Spitfire ExplainedDawn of the Replicants

It seemed too sad to leave these nuggets from the past to lay idle on a hard-drive and never see the light of day. There's the ones the got away: "Recovery Position',"Showgirls in the Mist" and "method acting"- giddy replicants pop buffoonery at its best but somehow lost between albums.

You can also find all four tracks recorded for the "So Far So Spitfire" e.p, which brought DOTR to the attention of John Peel, Mark Radcliffe, Marc "Lard" Riley and George Tyekiff, the man who signed us to east/west records in 1997.

There's also some of the other tracks that helped get us signed: "Mary Louise' in demo form and "Float on a Raft', recorded on an early jolly to the studio in 1995. Not forgetting the Replicants do Pluto Monkey joy that can found in a rare live take of "Joe Meek" from 2006.

These tracks have been found, dusted down and sonically repaired where possible and now we can present to you "Chaos in an Inkwell: So Far So Spitfire Explained" and remember when the goose is strong and ready she will return....
