The NoMen

Post by Keg » Tue Aug 01, 2006 12:33 am

I'm sure many readers will be aware of the NoMen and their healthy catalogue of covers (many available for free download) by the likes of the TVPs, Swell Maps, Jowe Head and others.

As a tribute to the late Syd Barrett, they've re-recorded their version of "I Know Where Syd Barrett Lives", with various embellishments.

Also worth hearing are their versions of two recent TVP tunes:
All the Young Children on Crack

She Can Stop Traffic

I've just noticed that the NoMen have made a video for their Syd Barrett / TVP tribute - filmed in a shed (naturally)!
