starring Ray Winstone and Ben Kingsley...
Last night I watched />Sexy Beast, starring Ray Winstone, Ben Kingsley and Ian McShane, and directed by music video director Jonathon Glazier.
Ray Winstone plays Gal (short for Gary, he's not a girl) a gangster who's retired to Spain, but is destined to go back to London to take part in one more (underwater) robbery.
Although it's not a comedy it's very funny in parts - particularly the parts with Ben Kingsley sweartastic outbursts as the mobster who will not take no for an answer. His cussmongous rants are sure to end up as an answerphone message somewhere...
Overall, not as good as I thought it'd be. Ian Mcshane just isn't menacing enough as the crime boss in charge of the heist.
As DVD's go, the extras are interesting (talking heads style interviews with the cast), but you wouldn't watch them again.
Worth watching but get someone else to pay for it...

New album imminent and GRATE!
RAH, got the new Beta Band album (Hot Shots 2), big up to Mike @ Infected for the smashing parcel of stuff that arrived today...
The album's out on July 16th, though the first single from it "Broke" is out next week.
The opening track on the album, "Squares", was due to be the first single, but as it has the same main sample as the current I Mobster single "Daydream In Blue", it's been withdrawn. Unsurprisingly enough, they sound almost identical, such is the power of enormous samples...
Is that really a picture of the Beta Band on the Beta Band profile page? It looks like David Gedge to me, have I messed up>

Beta Band withdraw single...
The planned first single from the Beta Band's new album "Hot Shots II" has been withdrawn because of a "strange coincidence"...
Squares was due to be the first release, two weeks before the album, on July 2nd. It turns out that a track by another artist (I Mobster), due to be released that day uses the same main sample, which has pissed on the Beta Band's parade slightly.
Neither party were aware when
recording that the other was working with the same material. Beta Band have not confirmed an alternate single yet, but the tracklisting of the album - "Hot Shots II" is as follows:
01. Squares
02. Al Sharp
03. Humanbeing
04. Gone
05. Dragon
06. Broke
07. Quiet
08. Alleged
09. Life
10. Eclipse
Beta Band are supporting the mighty Radiohead on their North American tour this summer.
