Souvlaki was one of my favorites from the 90's but I'd never gotten around to hearing this album until now and I'm actually a little surprised (in a good way) what a departure it is from that album. Much closer to later Talk Talk than MBV or any shoegaze kinda stuff. I never really understood how they got tossed in with that lot anyway. I always considered Souvlaki to be dream pop, not really a rock album so to speak.
