christ. can't be all that surprised though - i was stunned they lasted to a second album, although to be fair this probably does no-one any good.

Why not suprised?
Have they got a rep for over indulgence???
I have never heard of these guys.

Ah man...That's a bit of a heartbreaker. I caught AHC at the Mean Fiddler back in March, and they were fucking good. The new album is great too, so this is a tragic shame.

just slightly - most of them went through rehab after their first album ,and if i remember rightly, one of them went completely loopy.

As someone said above, "Just So You Know" was a cool tune-though I won't pretend I was a big fan or anything.
RIP.
