Wayne: Like sex, your first gig, your first time in an aeroplane, you always remember your first. GOM still holds a very special place in my affections. Everything was wide-eyed, exciting and new.
Simon: Being the first album, many of the songs are the ones we were playing live on those early tours before being signed and recording them. The studio work that went into GOM defined the band's sound and demanded not to be ignored. Probably my favourite if I was forced to choose just one.
Craig: It was a glorious summer and we made a glorious record. We were all very excited, we had just come back from some European shows and the tour bus dropped us at the studio. So from live 24 hours earlier to recording...We were ready.

Wayne: The First Chapter captures the unbridled joy of escape from creative incarceration. This is the sound of a band finding its métier. Still sounds fresh to my tired old ears.
Simon: Much more the sound of the band as we were from the outset. A far less augmented production than GOM and so retaining the sense of four lads banging it out.
