One of the tropes of our videos is that they were very rhythmic with clipped edits.

We were coming from a completely different place, which was saying "sound" is what you want to define it as, and you can shape it into music in whichever way you want.

In the 80s, we were still living in a kind of Cold War environment.

We've always been observant of things, and I think Crackdown was very much like that and the film interpretation was that journalistic view of that situation.

[Kino] worked really well as a song title, and to build into a lyric, and also how we embraced mulit-media at the time.

Even though we were influenced by American culture and music, we like the rest of Europe have been colonized with that in the post-war period. At the same time there's a sense of dirty earthiness and Europeanness and Britishness in it as well.

I think probably underneath it all, film [Kino] has its own rhythm and its own dynamic, and we were trying to capture the movement of film and cross-reference it with music.
