Someday, if I get a regular high school English class like Harkan, I am going to do a lesson on irony, and then pass out a lyric sheet for Ironic, and have students explain why the lyrics are not actually about irony. But isn't it ironic?

They didn't want to become a rehash band, so they tried something knew and it produced some fantastic songs. Blue Orchid is an intense and catchy rock song, White Moon is a heart-wrenching piano ballad, and Take, Take, Take is one of the funniest songs I have ever heard. This album has a little bit of everything. It might not be the most accessible stripes album, but it is certainly a grower that ended up being one of my favorites."

Just as Broadcast found their sound - halfway between the Young Marble Giants and Nico - poor Trish died of pnemonia... a terrible, terrible loss. Tender Buttons will serve as their epitaph, but what a fitting, beautiful and mesmerising record to leave us with..."
