Title: Video to Higher Wall
Post by: cthulhu on July 21, 2019, 09:03:58 AM

I just found this video on youtube. It is more like a slideshow of pictures to the song but those images that were used really show something, what is going on with the walls.
We are ruled by powerhungry sociopaths who are just plain dumb.
"Clever monkeys with technology
Barely out of the caves and the trees..."

Nice!  I always found it odd that Higher Wall and Far Better Thing were only given an official release (at the time) on the bonus disc of 1992's 'History' compilation, an album which I seem to remember the band weren't happy about being released... two great tunes that are right up there with NMA's best, IMHO...nice alternative versions of Adreneline and Luustapp as well.

(If I've got any of that wrong, blame my rapidly ageing memory and please correct me, that ragged old mind of mine does let me down sometimes!)   ;)

Agreed again today! ;) Rumour & Rapture also has never been officially released. Like its vintage vibe.

Lotus, right. I meant the release recognised as the full album with its entire background. BD 3 EP is slightly different  ;)

I first heard rumour & rapture as an opener at a gig in cologne, didn't know it before. A very strong, powerful opener i find "what's haaapppeneiiiiing...!" and a brilliant song!
