John Moore hereby joins the very short list of artists who've answered our Pointless Questions more than once. Black Box Recorder, meanwhile, will release their second album, The Facts of Life, on March 20th, 2001, complete with the controversial "raw meat" artwork that didn't fly in the UK. Perhaps that's why Moore seems a little irritable.
