STEREO MCS - STEREO MCS: 'WE F**KED UP'

STEREO MCS frontman ROB B is convinced his band are the ultimate example of "career suicide", because they had the world at their feet and then almost lost everything.

The acclaimed British dance act rocked the charts with their breakthrough album CONNECTED in 1992, before disappearing from the public gaze until 2000.

However, their delayed follow-up release, DEEP DOWN AND DIRTY, was only a modest success in comparison, and they've been fighting their way out of the wilderness ever since.

ROB B - real name ROBERT BIRCH - explains, "Everyone has a dark period, and we did f**k up, big time, but we just didn't know where to go.

"If you wanted a description of career suicide, we would have been it."
