Never has there been a band with so many killer riffs, either from the bass of Stephen Hanley back in the day, or the guitars of Craig Scanlon and latterly Ben Pritchard.

Here's ten to drill into your subconscious and make you worship the very ground MES gobs on.

  1. Ladybird Green Grass (two crackers here)
  2. Lucifer Over Lancashire
  3. Lay Of The Land
  4. 2 x 4
  5. Spoilt Victorian Child
  6. Guest Informant
  7. Couldn't Get Ahead
  8. Blindness
  9. Theme From Sparta FC
  10. Way Round

Gotta agree with Tim's list, and numbers 3 and 4 are the brilliant back to back openers from the Wonderful And Frightening World album; stood on the S. Hanley side for my vantage point of their concert, and the pulse of 2 x 4 felt literally like I was being hit by one. The new one Blindness is great as well, hopefully they'll be over here to support the album in the new year.

Others of mine: Smile

Crop-Dust

Fantastic Life (maybe a VU-type riff, but I can (and have) played that song over and over and over and over and...)

Man Whose Head Expanded

Can't forget Totally Wired either.
