This album is on a par with the best work of bands such as Coldplay and Radiohead and although it did raise their profile it really deserved to make them house hold names. This track has it all, you can almost cut the atmosphere with a knife!

Smudge from the UK was the first person to identify the mystery track as “Doot Doot” by the Welsh band Freur.

However as in all competitions of such a high calibre it wouldnt be fair to award the prize to Smudge as the technical glitch renders it null and void. Ive rolled the prize over for next weeks comp! 

Oh special mention must also go to Mr R. Berg of Australia who emaield with an extensive history of the band, its amazing to think there are still such obsessive fans out there!
