Street Operator

Another also-ran from the demo sessions for This is Hardcore, “Street Operator” could’ve possibly been molded into something worthy of that album. With lyrics that satirize denizens of the drugged-out Britpop era, the song would’ve fit thematically. At the point of this recording, however, melodically “Street Operator” is a rather unmemorable ballad, and the band plays it listlessly. It’s no real loss.
