(Hello, what have we here?) (A young lady!) (To what do I owe this pleasant surprise my pretty one?) (How may I be of service this dark and wintry night?) (Ah, I see... you wish me to look into the future, your future) (After GCSEs, A-levels, University...)

All these things will come to pass when heroes of the middle-class face up, repent, and pay the price for accidentally creating life An oversight for which they must atone and sacrifice their own

Именно Хэннон был основателем этого проекта, а зачастую и единственным его участником. Группа появилась на свет в 1989 году в формате трио, и помимо Нила в ее... продолжение
