There is a massive factory in Sheffield with a huge sign saying Sheffield 
Forgemasters which must have inspired Beckett and Hall in naming that first 
Warp release. 
Then of course there is the influence of bands like Cabaret Voltaire, Human 
League and Clock DVA on then 313 Innovators - but then y'all know that.. :o)

I might've said this earlier (way back), but it was nice to notice a real 
life connection in a TV-film Doomsday Gun 
( http://us.imdb.com/Title?0109650 ).
The Sheffield plant used for the manufacturing of the gun's parts was none 
other than ... Forgemasters. :)
A shipping-crate with no label?-)
