Brilliant bittersweet pop - Daily Mail

The long-awaited Nobody's Perfect resissue is still available from Occultation and Bandcamp, as well as some online retailers, but it's selling fast, such has been the overwhelmingly positive response from fans and journalists alike. Here's the review that appeared on the ever-popular Daily Mail website and in its English and Scottish papers on Friday 27th March.






THE DISTRACTIONS: Nobody's Perfect (Man In The Moon)

MANCHESTER outfit The Distractions were contemporaries of Joy Divison and released the brilliant Time Goes By So Slow single in 1979. They also signed to Island at the same time as U2, but disbanded after their 1980 debut. The band recently re-formed and this 40th anniversary reissue - with new mixes - reiterates their bittersweet pop credentials.
