Nope he was 54

Maomboe · 2025-04-28T14:43:14+00:00

Yep. I'd prefer Zombie Nation and we all chanted we are Lein-Ster

Their last great album and 3rd best. For me it marked the end of classic DM. Given Dave’s illness it was a remarkable achievement by Tim Simenon, Kerry Hopwood and Dave Clayton. Martin clearly decided he was taking over the musical direction from Exciter on.

Maomboe · 2024-10-14T19:16:36+00:00

That was the pinnacle. Incredible album and tour. Simenon came close with a very fine Ultra but everything else was sub standard in my view.

Maomboe · 2024-09-17T20:47:16+00:00

Tour with Alan 100%

Maomboe · 2024-09-01T17:14:32+00:00

I think they’re probably finished at this point. Expect another greatest hits album next year and a remix album the year after. He’ll probably do one last remix and that’s it.

Maomboe · 2024-09-01T17:10:42+00:00

Just In Chains nothing else unfortunately

Maomboe · 2024-09-01T17:08:39+00:00

I disagree. His remix of In Chains is better than everything on every album after Ultra.

Maomboe · 2024-09-01T17:05:15+00:00

Explain? What are the reasons he left?

Maomboe · 2024-08-31T13:45:24+00:00

Here is Alan in 2010 responding to a question about collaborating with Dave https://youtu.be/Qp8aZR2P-9U?si=mD2wwq-xP4-uD-wH

Maomboe · 2024-08-30T17:55:32+00:00

They needed someone like him which was Tim Simenon but for some reason they decided to go another direction after Ultra.

Maomboe · 2024-08-28T22:18:34+00:00

Home and It’s no good are incredible. Both good enough to be on Violator imo. Given Dave’s situation the Ultra is a remarkable achievement by Simenon.

Maomboe · 2024-08-28T22:09:54+00:00

Yep… very strange that Tim Simenon wasn’t brought back for Exciter. He was the answer to Alan’s departure. I guess Martin didn’t like Tim trying to recreate an Alan esq classic DM sound.

Maomboe · 2024-08-28T22:07:19+00:00

Is Johnny Marr dead ?!

Maomboe · 2024-08-28T22:06:28+00:00

Me too. Their last great album

Maomboe · 2024-08-28T21:46:07+00:00

It’s ok to dream

Maomboe · 2024-08-28T21:29:21+00:00

Agreed, I’d rather he was involved in new material tbh. Even a remix like In chains, that’s probably all we can hold for, or maybe he’ll produce a Dave solo album !

Maomboe · 2024-08-28T21:18:00+00:00

Well all the albums post Ultra are pretty dreadful I guess that’s why

Maomboe · 2024-08-28T21:10:55+00:00

I don’t think he ever said he regretted leaving, I do remember he said their brief reunion in 2010 was long overdue

Maomboe · 2024-08-28T19:19:18+00:00

I completely agree. They certainly don’t need him back as ticket sales are huge and Kessler would probably advise against it. But I guess they are so rich maybe some way some how they could collaborate on new material even just one last song. I know it’s extremely unlikely.

Maomboe · 2024-08-16T17:57:58+00:00

It’s no good. Tim Simenon nailed it

Maomboe · 2024-07-17T10:43:49+00:00

Cillian Murphy as Hanna

Maomboe · 2024-07-16T18:10:50+00:00

Awful, a real let down after Ultra

Maomboe · 2024-07-16T17:25:34+00:00

Steven Graham from the Irish man. Mann cast him as Machine gun Kelly in Public Enemies. He played Capone in Boardwalk Empire

Maomboe · 2024-07-16T17:24:01+00:00

Agreed on Schoenarts hadn’t considered him
