THE ‘BEAT IS BACK ‘IS A CLASSIC, BUT THE OTHER 2 ARE INFERIOR BY A MILE, THERE OTHER 7″ IS FAR BETTER.

Yeah the b-side dosen’t really hold up to The Beat Is Back. But I still enjoy them! Especially Let’s Go Cuboids.

Damn neato! Let’s Go Cuboids is a terrific song.
Question: is She Ain’t in Love supposed to fade at the end of the song like it does here? Or is it a mistake?
Thanks!
