The Fly
Hello all,
I am relatively new to these forums, and I don't know if anyone has posted this already; it's an article that appeared in the Irish Times where Steve Lillywhite admits that "NLOTH" was a "failure" in terms of sales and blames it in part on the lack of a single that really grabbed people's attention. I think this is sad; I actually liked "NLOTH" overall, particularly the first 5 songs. "Moment of Surrender" in particular I still find very moving. I personally feel "NLOTH" is an introspective album and sometimes quieter work does not get the accolades or attention from the masses. It's too bad if the band feels its a failure, since they have dropped most of the "NLOTH" songs from the current tour:
