Chi sente la mancanza della band scozzese, capace di aver dato vita ad un personalissimo immaginario miscelando elettronica, indie-folk contornato da testi depressivo/alcolico/sessuali, potrà gioire (ma non troppo, visto il tipo di sonorità) perchè la Chemikal Underground ristamperà i primi due album del duo Middleton–Moffat; The Week Never Starts Round Here (1996) e Philophobia (1998) usciranno il prossimo 17 Agosto in un unico “cofanetto expanded” dal titolo Scenes of a Sexual Nature, con materiale sonoro inedito (preso dalle registrazioni alla BBC ed alle Peel Session) ed una nuova copertina.
