EIGHTIES MATCHBOX RE-SORT B-LINE

The news isn't all that grim from the Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster: they've lost a member, but the band will remain a going concern.Andy Huxley, who has been playing guitar while Guy McKnight juddered and ground his teeth, has announced he's leaving:

“The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster are the greatest band in the UK and will become the greatest band in the world. I, meanwhile, have decided to pursue my chosen path as the greatest King Buzzo impersonator on earth.”

We look forward to him telling the people down the dole that that's his new career path.


Prices of 80sMBLD albums such as this one have not risen on the news, as thousands of fans fail to show up desperate to claim a lasting souvenier of the way they were.

The splendidly named Rick Fownes has joined the band, who are currently preparing for their new job opening for System of Down across Europe. We're starting to see why Huxley decided to quit.
