I had seen a few Shane Meadows movies and shorts before this point, having studied Room For Romeo Brass (which I thought was pretty lame) and for the most part I felt I had unpacked his standard writing format, which still seems to stand as the same:1.

Not only was heavy/alternative/interesting music pretty good but also pop music wasn't that bad. In 2008 pop music was bad, very very bad. Apart from swathes of terrible identikit indie bands twanging away we also had Coldplay releasing new material. I hate Coldplay so very very much.
