I loved KMFDM and Tackhead tonight!!
I would love to hear New Order – Crystal next Sunday.
Goodnight!
Great show tonight, Matt. Thank you. Can you play “Pimpf” from Depeche Mode off of Music for the Masses next week? It’s all instrumental, but dark. Love that track.
Really liked your second hour. Next week could you play KMFDM Virus?
Another great show!! Thank you for playing Kommunity FK. Haven’t heard that for a long time.
Another I haven’t heard for awhile..
The Damned “Plan 9 Channel 7” …possibly for next week?

Kevin
For next week please play one or more of the following:
Bauhaus- Mask
Cocteau Twins- Millimillenary
Lowlife- Eternity Road

Cocteau Twins “Fotzepolitic”. If you can rip the file from the 24bit remaster you can make everyone’s speakers explode as well as their souls.
De Profundis (Out of the Depths of Sorrow) – Dead Can Dance)
The Cure “Grinding Halt”. Eerily appropriate.
Great show Matt! Thanks for playing NMA. Stay safe xx
