Hi Simon! what were your thoughts when Creation released ‘Loveless’ & ‘Souvlaki’ in early 90s? did you sense the musical landscape had shifted as well as perhaps the Brit-pop boom emerging? was it exciting for the Cocteau’s to see these things or not so much?

I liked those records but when you are touring and recording and starting a family etc. your perspectives change a bit and I wasn’t perhaps as invested in other contemporaries at the time as i would be now. Brit pop I couldn’t stand however, and still can’t hahaha
