We don't know how you do things down your neck of the woods, sonny, but in our manor you don't just nick a great band's name for some dreadful slab of leaden roots rock.

This driving groove is about as 'spiritualized' as, well, Finley Quaye is, which ain't much, despite his lyrical claims to have knocked the drink and the drugs on the head "for love".

If he wanted to bang out a tune with sentiments he could have got behind, he should have chosen a title like 'Bladdered', 'Pickled' or 'Lost What Little I Once Had'.

We'd buy that record…
