^ what a coincidence, I'm listening to "Clouds Taste Metallic" right now. Vastly suoerior album in my opinion. Although they never really got it together until "The Soft Bulletin"

^ I like them a lot. Excellent live !!

I saw you post the other day that you didn't like Yoshimi. That's a shame, I think it's a great album.

My own copy on shiny silver disc.

This is some way away from their Punk roots, but the energy is still there despite the band spreading their musical wings into other areas.

Very good album.

Lifeguards - Waving At The Astronauts

I'm starting to think without you all I would never hear new music as Music Head brought this album to our attention. I've been listening to it on Spotify for 2 days now. I think I may buy it. I especially like Nobody's Milk and What Am I

The Modern Dance-Pere Ubu

This was one of those music milestones in my life. We all have them. Those two or three special albums that just make you listen to music differently, this was a big one for me

On the laptop.

Their second album, from 1988.

Bridging the gap, somehow, between Alt Rock & Metal, this is a very solid album of fine songs delivered by Perry Farrell's heliumish voice. I only have one other of their albums - Ritual de lo Habitual - and this one sounds like it gives the other a good run for its' money.

A Buy List certainty.

Haven't heard any of Farrell's Porno For Pyros albums, so any advice would be welcome.
