The second (and perhaps last if I can't find anymore of my old mixtapes) in the series of playlists from decade-old mixtapes features another set of moody britpop and 90s alternative. A little more aggressive this time, and also a bit of humour creeping in (why I followed Sisters of Mercy with Tori Amos' disco cover, I'll never know). Again some nice cuts in here, like Stereolab's excellent version of the theme from Get Carter (one of my favourite movies of all time) and Vancouver indie-band Mollies Revenge with Every Dirty Word (I think I taped it from their self-released EP "Perfect Whole" rather than the label release of Every Dirty Word itself).
