The interference archive has existed as long as the band and has been quietly keeping everything that has ever been recorded by Ferg and Co. Both here and on Facebook you can  find the definitive interference collection of photographs, videos and recordings from interference and all the side projects and collaborations through all the line ups of the band from 1986 to the present day. A finer collection of musicians I have yet to come across.
