I love Oil on Canvas most, for the Japan stuff. Voices Raised In Welcome, Hands Raised In Prayer is one of my favourite song titles (even if it has no singing, so it's not a song).

That's cool. I don't think there's any doubt that Tin Drum is by far and away their finest LP proper.

Only eight songs, but every one of them is top notch. Especiallly Sons of Pioneers and Cantonese Boy.

I've always had a problem with Oil on Canvas on account of it being the most un-live live album in existence.

Hip Priest 09.13.2006 10:43 AM

I know what you mean about that, I assume it's either heavily mastered or a flawless performance. Sons of Pioneers takes on a haunted quality though that makes it even better.

Every time I come onto this board, my mental list of 'must listen to/buy' increases.

Pookie! Stop being invisible. It's very rude.



EDIT - That's better. Thank you.

If you're referring to Tin Drum, then I may be able to help. I'll no longer be needing my original cassette version, so I'll pop it in with my round three mixtape if you like. It'll be cool if it goes to a good home.

Yes the postage was a bit much, considering it is only clothing. I wanted it badly though, so that people can ask, "what the hell is FFC?"

You really are too kind Sonicl! I will keep this in mind.

At that time i used to go head over hills about them and Huggy Bear.Do you remember when they burned the Morrisey's poster in front of the EMI offices in Hammersmith?

I think I have to run back to the store and grab that Cows LP. Sounds like they are just the band for me. I love that noisy 90s stuff.
