I listened to Washing Machine recently as well, always been one of my undisputed favourites.
It was maybe the fourth or fifth album of theirs I bought when I was around about 15 or 16, so this was like 15 years ago. It immediately blew me away, it has a specific atmosphere/ambience that is really magical for want of a less cheesy word.
Totally agree about the guitar sound, how it's clear yet dissonant at the same time, beautifully produced record. The only track I'm not so fond of is Little Trouble Girl for some reason. But the title track and Becuz would easily figure in a list of my all time favourite tracks.
