UK DEKAY \u2013 VAGUE<\/p>\n
At the moment they have left a void. It wasn\u2019t fair that the new breed were reaping rewards for what Decay had done, when they weren\u2019t getting rewarded. In a way they were merely being accepted. \u2018Good old Decay, The Eagles of the South\u2019 and all that crap. Good luck to them I say.<\/p>\n
It seems funny they\u2019ve gone after \u2018Werewolf\u2019 put them worlds ahead. Perhaps they didn\u2019t like the thought of missing a Vague obituary. They wanted to see it, silly bastards that they are.<\/p>\n
When Decay sang \u2018Testament\u2019; the world reeled When they split it fell in half. When Abbo briefly outlined future plans my brain seized up. I didn\u2019t know what to expect. That\u2019s quite good really – he\u2019s a funny man.<\/p>\n
With intelligence and inspiration Decay helped so many bands but that, an important matter on its own, is trifling in the thought waves when you consider the impact of their music. Our emotional soundtracks are seldom this pointy and deep. I mean Abbo waffles on about books a lot, but he\u2019s a decent chap, what, what?<\/p>\n
For once no mourning exists. Spon\u2019s guitar will feature in his new band. Abbo, Eddie and Steve (with a new man) go on. That exuberance continues, so what\u2019s all this, Tom, that I\u2019m supposed to rite?<\/p>\n
I do say of the Decay reign that their importance was inside us all. We felt what they were doing, we recognised it and appreciated the integrity that went with everything they did. In a way they\u2019ve done more than just about anybody but \u2026it\u2019s weird when you think about it all. It\u2019s impossible to reflect. They\u2019re all still here.<\/p>\n
(I tore my trousers the other day. Perhaps I\u2019m a positive punk?)<\/p>\n
