Great show Matt! My favorite tonight was the Killing Joke.
Matt, Matt, best show I’ve heard you do! You really held an excellent show tonight. My guy & I we’re able to listen to it, on time & from beginning to end on our trip back from The Furs concert. Thank you for playing my requests & for such an excellent show!!
Also, great photo of The Sound!
I’m sure it’s been said before… XM needs to put your sets in serious rotation. One night a week just doesn’t do justice!
Great show Matt! Thanx for playing my request :)

Great show last night. I have a couple of requests for a future show. Suicide Jag by Chemlab, and Japanese bodies by Leaether Strip. Thanks
Hello Matt,
For next week (or whenever), how about something from the recently released New Order live album, New Order + Liam Gillick: So it goes…
How’s about “All Day Long”
Then “Ultraviolence” from the same album in the coming weeks.
Thanks.
Cosmic episode!
This week’s Darkness Award:
Revolting Cocks, “Attack Ships on Fire”
“The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long – and you have burned so very, very brightly, Roy.”
Request for future show:
Depeche Mode, “Shake the Disease”
(Summer Dance Mix)
Hi Matt! I’m so grateful for your show! Could you play Head by Jesus and Mary Chain?
Hi Matt- I’m requesting “ Motorslug” by Wiseblood. Also, Morrissey- Will Never Marry extended version.
Good spins last night, Matt!
Here are a couple requests for a possible future show –

Thanks as always!
Great show Matt! Very impressive play list. Your show remains the highlight of my week. The first hour was a brilliant play list!

I don’t know if The Passions was a request or your own idea, but hearing it put me on Cloud 9. Great show!
For next wk or in the future, how about:
KMFDM – Naïve (Remix by MLwtTKK)
MLwtTKK – The Days of Swine and Roses (Remix by KMFDM)
You could even play them back-to-back, since they’re on the same split single, altho that’s 20:31 minutes of music LOL.
How about Men At Work,”Down By The Sea” or “Helpless Automaton”
on next weeks show?
Excellent show!
The Cure – Plainsong
Thanks for playing the best moments on Radio in years if not 4ever.
I would love to hear “Baby Judy” by the Hawaiian Pups. and since I don’t think they have ever been played, their other single Young Boys would be great too!
Oh and another go of Yu Gung- Futter Mein Ego by Einstrurzende Neaubauten! BEAUTIFUL !!!!
Thanks again for making radio worth listening to!
Love from Canada
