Carbon/Silicon: 'The Magic Suitcase' (Carbon/Silicon), Is yet another attempt by Tony James (ex Sigue Sigue Sputnik) to resurrect his ailing career as a designer punk. Sounds like a early incarnation of Mick Jones's Big Audio Dynamite, he's even got the high pitched cockney wail down to a tee. Oh fuck it is Mick Jones, oh god please this is such a sad union. Give it up!THE SECOND SINGLE FROM CARBON/SILICON SINCE FORMING THEIR OWN LABEL SPRING 2007

MICK JONES (THE CLASH)
TONY JAMES (SIGUE SIGUE SPUTNIK, LONDON SS)

When I first saw the album cover I almost crapped me pants cuz I thought it was pretty gay, but the song the "Magic Suitcase" actually turned out to be pretty catchy. The only other song I heard was "The System" which I also thought was pretty ok. Altogether I can say it's not a horrible album from what I heard ;)...according to mikel.
This single is great! Acton Zulus is awesome!
