The bands best for you eh zak?? Unique choice. Lots of great songs for me but it’s got nothing on Judgement, WHBWH and WS.

Agreed hard.

They tread a dangerous line but they walk the right side of it each and every time although I have to say I’m a tad disappointed with red one with boat.

Natural Disaster is brilliant mate.

What's your favourite one so far?

Mine is Weather Systems.

Top 5 as it stands

Fine Day to Exit
Distant Satellites
Weather Systems
Judgement
WHBWH

It chops and changes though. I got into these very recently and I would say Weather Systems was initially me fave.

Distant Satellites sometimes felt a bit too boring at times. Everything else they've done is pretty on point. Awesome band.

It’s the one that’s most memorable for me. Dusk, Aerial, Anathema and the t/t are all absolute belters that perfect the Weather Systems formula.

Zak my order for those albums would be the exact opposite :D



Fine Day is near the bottom of their discog for me - always thought they were trying to court the Radiohead/Muse thing too much at the time. Has a few corkers on there but overall came across as trying to jump genre ship a bit too quick.



The run of songs from 'Barriers' to 'Temporary Peace' I really like.

I can definitely see that Radiohead/muse formula creeping in there Doof mate but I’ll stick by me guns. Underworld is me fave tune from the band, the t/t is quality and there’s some absolute tunes along the way. Panic is bobbins though.

Panic is classic, they usually play it live, faster and heavier. Underworld sounds like Headswim to me lol - very 90s



From my ratings it's funny, they have nothing close to a proper classic album, a lot of middling albums..but they're a top 30 band of all time. They've always been a strange one for me.
