yeah...i actually liked that version, even though it was just a bad mp3 of sorts. too bad they didn't try playing it faster live.

totally agree, the faster version is much better! But I can't find it either on my harddisk anymore...:\ohwell:

Do you and brade27 mean the BBC Radio One demo? It's a low quality version that is faster. I think I have it somewhere.

There was, however, an official Warners CDR that came with a different version of Brutal (which has other songs on it, so it isn't the same as the 'Brutal' CDR) - dunno whether it's the same version as the BBC Radio One demo, or not?

At some point, I'll have to check the differences between the one on the CDR and the soundtrack, but first of all, I've got to find the CDR! :D

I really don't know, can't find that version anymore. And no-one has a good quality version of that faster tune?

The version I have isn't very good. It's not comparable to the Let's Go demo, but it is noticeably lower in terms of a bitrate, even though on Lame it's set at 128. I thought I recall getting this version awhile back on Dreams Never End site. I could look for it among all my cds and rip it if you like.

That Israeli promo seemed to be just the UK one with a sticker on the front, no? Same cat number?

:\pimp3:

hmmm, haven't received it yet. But if you're right, that would have been a very expensive sticker...

tis exactly the same as the uk promo but with israeli sticker on it,would be very surprised if someone traded a copy of brutal for it!

at least it's not the most expensive Krafty promo I bought

Otherwise, there won't be that many of those stickers around

Unfortunately, I tried ripping the track off one of my cd-r's that I burned from a different, older computer and it won't read it! But, it play fine in a walkman. What I will do later this week is attempt to rip it at work and see if I can garner any success.

I remember hearing it for the first time on a listening post in HMV Shibuya, Tokyo sometime in early 2001 and being mega dissapointed. It inspired my one and only ever post on what I assume must have been the "Ceremony" noticeboard where I gave it both barells and suggested they call it quits and split for good! The more things change.....

Great soundtrack album, and I thought Brutal was a fine song on it. Came as a bit of a relief because I didn't think much of Republic at all.

Can't see the Electronic link to be honest - don't think it sounds like TT at all. It's a lot sparser

it's a top song, why didn't they ever work with Rollo again as producer?
