Living Type - History

History

"Living Type" was released with one b-side track, dubbed "Other Delicacies". The track consisted of six 90 second blocks of music, with instrumental backgrounds. Guitarist Darren Middleton explained that the single would only have two tracks listed, and when referring to "Other Delicacies", said that "all the songs are recorded in a block so you can't skip them, you have to listen to the whole ".

"Living Type" was first performed live by Powderfinger whilst opening for You Am I on their "Uptight Express Tour". The shows were considered highly successful; much more so than Powderfinger's live performances with US band Pantera, which were problematic to say the least.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    I believe that history has shape, order, and meaning; that exceptional men, as much as economic forces, produce change; and that passé abstractions like beauty, nobility, and greatness have a shifting but continuing validity.
    Camille Paglia (b. 1947)

    ... the history of the race, from infancy through its stages of barbarism, heathenism, civilization, and Christianity, is a process of suffering, as the lower principles of humanity are gradually subjected to the higher.
    Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)

    The history of the Victorian Age will never be written: we know too much about it.
    Lytton Strachey (1880–1932)
