Movies
The Wicker Man, obviously.
But not the Nic Cage version.
Awful, just awful.
Television
BBC Scotland's THE MUSIC SHOW filmed Solus in 2006 for a 38 minute web doc to accompany series 2. So thanks to them, this means you can now watch footage from Kobai, My Latest Novel, Quinn, Kid Canaveral, Popup, F.O. Machete, and Nigel! 'Click here for SOLUS 2006!'
Books
Marquis De Sade, Mills and Boons, Chris Ryan, Idiots Guide To Pagan Carpentry, it's all good.

Release Date: 30th June 2008 Format: CD & Digital (Album) Distribution: Cargo Catalogue No: HERB005CD
'Me, But Perfect' is the long awaited debut album from Scottish indie-electronic collective Engine7, following on from the single release of Tempertantrum in late April.
Originally formed as a one-man project by lead provocateur, Glasgow-based Alan McNeill, Engine7 now comprises 6 members with a bass player, backing vocalists and live video artist accompanying McNeill. 'Me, But Perfect' delivers an incendiary slice of modern electronic music, heavily laden with stirring post-rock guitar and bass rhythms, staccato beats, dark and broody atmospherics - all coated with a rich layer of glitched up sonic ambience.
The sounds swell like nature, brutal and beautiful, treading the line between paranoia and peace. The independent debut EP from 2005, 'Hope Street', saw Engine7 being described as a "dark and gritty style of organic electronica encompassing shoegaze, ambient and downtempo" and "a triumph for organic instrumentation and digital innovation".

i'm just sitting here, having listened frightened rabbit dry all day, thinking "hmm what should i listen to now?" suddenly, with the loveliest of bangs, on pops zoey van goey from your page and i've never been happier.
