I used to like Faithless when they sung about losing baseball caps, flowerstand men and god being a DJ, their first two albums were brilliant and were superb to hear in a club. However, starting with No Root's "Mass Destruction", they seem to have turned into a political voice and I can't imagine ever dancing to any of their latest tunes in a club.

Anyway, good video.

Good man! I spent a while YouTubeing JD yesterday...there's some rare old performances on there. A bloke at our place was wearing an Unknown Pleasures t-shirt the other - he'd never heard of Joy Division - 80's retro irony!

Are you sure it's banned from MTV?

I saw it on MTV a couple of months ago.

Good music video.

Completley disagree - i liked the early stuff - but for me, Weapons of Mass Destruction was their best song to date!

As for this one, nice dance tune, and I disagree about them being political - they're not like P Diddy making speeches and things - they simply made a video to perhaps suggest watching a war on the news doesnt make you realise the reality of it for the lives of the people its happening around...

Not banned from MTV, I watched it on "MTV dance" yesterday.

Why would it be banned?

Completely agree and they can do no wrong in my book - Baseball Cap being the only track I've never liked. New album's been slated but I think it's ace!

MTV banned the word 'war' from that Gaybar song. God knows why.

Also seen it on MTV, quite a few times. It was on Channel 4 too, Sky+'d it and kept playing until the wife got fed up with it and deleted it

Excellent tune, hoping to get their new album for my xmas
