Not gotten around to watching the film Ill Manors yet but is on me ToWatch list. Loved that Harry Brown one he did with Michael Caine though. Like Death Wish only good 
Occasional Mrs Shambles ain't generally into Plan B but is very fond of one of the tracks off the soundtrack. I generally loathe Chase & Status with a passion but this one ain't too bad - didn't get on at all with the other tracks they did with him. Even Mr B couldn't save them from being fukkin dire
Chase & Status (feat Plan B) - End Credits
But as far as Ill Manors goes... the album as a whole didn't grab me immediately but is growing on me. The title track is a fukkin beast of a tune though. And the vid is quality too
Plan B - Ill Manors
He's certainly a talented fucker. Have been a bit of a fanboy since I first saw him playing the acoustic version of Sick 2 Def (not that one but is a good 'un anyway) all by himself on a battered acoustic guitar on some late night C4 music show years ago. Coupla years later the kiddiez round here finally realised it wasn't just wank cos he's but lowly non-criminal observer with a geetar (cos by then he had an album out and they heard it on MTV 8) and suddenly I was getting "ree-speck" from da yoof for having dished out copies of his original mixtape quite some considerable time before that. Is funny how it often takes a mainstream TV appearance or two for folk to see what's right under their nose really.
That aside, am currently listening to...
They Might Be Giants - Birdhouse in Your Soul
Stone. Cold. Classic.
