From the Factory Records Yahoo! newsgroup:

"Tony Ogden lead singer of World of Twist was found dead near his home last
week. Martin Hannett produced
a number of their tracks. World of Twist only released one album in the
early nineties called Quality Street which is a fantastic album."

Some info on this underrated band:

omfgz World of Twist!

Was it Noel or Liam that was going to become a roadie for them? Noel? "****ing Mega Mega band", I believe he claimed. And they weren't bad from what I recall, though I don't recall much.

Rest in peace and all that.
