Untitled edit
We don't have a decent source for the banning from the charts of "Industry" - the link to [1] says "This is NOT an official statement. Do not use in press quotes." As we are not quoting it I believe this okay in the interim. However I'm aware this is controversial. Secretlondon 20:54, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
Just read this article on the BBC News site [2]. Think we can trust the beeb, can't we?! TomiG 19:04, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
Re-write needed edit
This article was in desperate need of a re-write. Half of it was charged with opinion, most of it was poorly written, and a lot of things didn't contain references. I've given it a go by just moving the existing text around, but it needs a good re-write, starting from scratch.
I've removed things like "they're going to play a gig in 2006". I've also removed this text:
The Modern had let on that their now-late record label Mercury had restricted the band from doing what they wanted as a band. Cooke has stated that with signing under a new name, they now have the freedom to do what they want with their music. It is said that Robert will continue to write songs with the band.
If you can find sources for it then add it back in, but even if you can, it needs tidying up.

Is this still a band? edit
I'm asking because the domain for their website is for sale.. W3ird N3rd (talk) 01:30, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
