Talk:Pop Will Eat Itself
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anyone else think that calling their songs 'classics' is a tad subjective? I think that there is a little bit too much opinion in this article.
- Yes, "instant classics" would be more appropriate, eh? ;) You're right though; I say go ahead and change it. Tabanger 21:23, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Content/References
Does anyone else think there should be a section talking about how often they make cultural references, briefly detailing some of the things they mostfrequently make reference to: Comic books, particularly Alan Moore, Twilight Zone, etc.? Hegar 16:14, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, I support this idea. Reference to this aspect of PWEI would be important to any encyclopedic article on the group.--Evil1987 15:25, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
I'm aware that Clint Mansell went on to do soundtrack music following PWEI's split... one example that comes to mind was at least one track for the "Pi" soundtrack. Were there others? Could someone who has more than a passing interest in Wikipedia post something about this?
- Actually, Clint did the entire score for Pi, which was his first of many motion picture scores. More info about his movie scoring is available in his Wikipedia article, Clint Mansell, where it belongs, rather than in the PWEI article. Tabanger 22:09, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
They worked with the prodigy aswell, on the track THEIR LAW on music for the jilted generation
[edit] Associated act The Bikini Bandits
I don't know if having a track mixed by a member (Richard March) qualifies another act (The Bikini Bandits) as being associated with PWEI. Perhaps if PWEI as a group had mixed the track, it would be a different story, but this is a stretch.--Evil1987 13:24, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
- It's not even a stretch. It's just flat out wrong. "Associated act" is defined as "Acts from which this act spun off; acts which spun off a group act; groups with which an artist performs; other acts with which the act is associated." I'm reverting it. Tabanger 22:15, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Love Missle F1-11
The piece "Love Missle F1-11" attributed to the poppies is wrong. It is a Sigue Sigue Sputnik production. Thank you. 65.208.235.66 21:45, 21 August 2007 (UTC)dude
- I believe you are correct that the song was written and originally performed by Sigue Sigue Sputnik; however, a cover version was recorded by Pop Will Eat Itself. --Evil1987 22:00, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
