The chances of hiop releasing any recorded material are fuckin slim, This would be nice though and then I would buy a copy sos's I can masturbate to Peters voice all night and piss my girl off....Expect a solo album from pete in about 2010 when he gets a big record deal

RE: HIOP The Lost Tracks interview.
I just read Craig’s account on why the Hells didn't release anything. It seems I probably didn’t make it clear enough that it really came more down to us. I tried to emphasise that in the beginning but let my record industry pet-hates get the better of me. What Craig forgets though is that (for the Hells) in order to "play lots" we had to either a) have lots of songs, b) be able and willing to improvise like Charlie, c) play the kind of music "we all like", d) play Hendrix, Stones and Led Zep covers or e) all of the above. But preferably a) have lots of songs. Truth be known, Hell is other people could barely put together a 30 minute set. Why? I hear all 3 Hell Is fans ask. Apart from each member of Hell is other people being guilty of being a useless sack of shit, myself included of course, a) we had know cash, b) we had no permanent rehearsal space/time. Catch-22. With out cash, gear, space and time, we couldn't play a decent live show and with out a decent live show we couldn't have cash, gear, space or time. I wasn't willing to sacrifice my £16 000 student debt. and weekly Satay Kampong allowance. Matt wasn't willing to sacrifice his super-computer and trip overseas and Craig wasn't willing to sacrifice his 23 litres of Strongbow Extra Strength (amongst other things) and his 3 o'clock in the afternoon sleep in. So to somewhat loosely quote Craig Terris "We pissed Hell is other People down the toilet" Our life-styles and ideas were too different. If we had had more in common we would have understood each other better and developed a sense of coherence and focus that sees other bands through. Most bands even had web sites within weeks of being formed.
Not that any of this really matters anymore.

Fucken have a fucken reunion you bastards!!
Hell is Other People are one of my most higherly rated bands EVER!
Saw one show (I'm just a baby) and since then loved the fucking music. The recorded stuff I've had the extreme honour to have heard is amazing at the least!.
Please just release that shit and make me happy or give me some bootlegs somebody (jules) please!

I fully agree! wasn't there talk of a reunion around this time last year? what happened with that eh?

Who knows.
It's just such a fucken waste.
and there are a lot more than just three fans.
Played my girlfriend like two songs and she loves them, and if there was some more recordings I'm sure a lot more people would love them too.
