Finally downloaded the album a couple of days ago, listened to it at various times, in various places, and Martin, I just want to say, its cracking – a synthesis of the best of The Boos, the fingertip saint session era and the recent bravecaptain laptopping electronics. Onwards and upwards.

cant agree more, definitely the finest bravecaptain album to date - pop tunes fcked up in the most glorious ways imaginable. lets hope jerusalem isnt the last bc/akira collaboration cos it's truly awesome. in any sane world that and 'oh you' would be all over our airwaves right now ...
i think i read somewhere that martin wants to concentrate more on djing and remixing and less on making albums, not sure if thats true but would be a great shame cos distractions proves he's still one of the greatest songwriters of this generation.

'oh you' gets my pick too, but i am loving all of it. it really has all of the elements that i like about bravecaptain. it deserves a proper release. a vinyl version would be amazing.

Hopefully my internet working again... anyway, my mate downloaded Distractions for me, and I second the comments here:

a) it's great
b) Wichita - what you thinking?
c) like Frosties, it's great.

cheers bc

Punk Rock is stunning, Oh You is the perfect squelchy accompaniment to a hangover, I Don't Know Any Better is pure pop loveliness. And then there's Jerusalem - "Tricks of The Shade", "The world is lurching so far right, I fall out of bed at night", 3D from Massive Attack being hassled by "The Man", Bob Geldof, Team America, brits on the piss in Prague , "Live fat, die young, love songs unsung", slagging off the editor of The Sun. All human life is there, lovingly wrapped up in the best tune in aeons.
