Are you mental?"The instinctive racoon is a survivor my friend, able to adapt to any environment. Equally at home in the woods or a garden shed, it relies on its keen senses to alert it to danger and bad tunes."You mean the Kaiser Chiefs."Um, yes." But, don't racoons like rubbish?"No, Sir. Far from being a scavenger the racoon refuses all but the tastiest morsels mother nature offers up to its CD burner. Often this does mean sifting through the trash, wide-eyed and wild in the middle of the night, exploring the deep recesses of the soul, seeking that one lick or lyric that might satisfy...."Listening to music when you're wrecked then?"In a manner of speaking..."You don't have a proper job do you?"No....but I can see with my HANDS!!!"

Time For Heroes Fanzine Review
