That's one of my favourites. I love the whole Burt Bacharach feel. It's quite Sixties". Opening with a hard piano riff and propelled along by some heavy percussion, "Headlock" is a song about unreliable men. Lewis commented: "I've not just drawn from myself, but from someone in the band and friends." "Too Nasty" shows indignation on a wayward reggae. It was called "Tuna Steak" because Blatt's daughter Lily came into the studio and when they sang "too
