This has such a retro 80's sound, but the melody and dynamics contained within makes for a pleasant listen. It may even be their most melodic offering to date, but the synthesisers and jaz coleman's soothing voice(though some are more used to his rougher voice) make it one to be admired, certainly.

Yeh, this is a great album... not the kind of thing I tend to listen to regularly though!

I never made lists of my favourite albums, mainly because I'd take me days and I'd spent too much time updating it. But this one would easily be in the top 10. Track#1 is just perfect.

You finally listened to it! I can safely assume you liked it. Very happy to see that. That track should be renamed Perfection.

I actually have been exploring Killing Joke after you mentioned them to me on one of the threads. This album I instantly took a liking to even back when I first heard it a few weeks ago. But the awesomeness of the record just dawned on me today. You know how it's like, you listen to an album, you really like it and then you kinda forget about it until you rediscover it and are absolutely blown away. :-P Well that happened to me with this one. And you're absolutely right, track 1 is out of this world.
P.S. You should try the new Kayo Dot if you haven't already, that is the album that reminded me of this one and the reason why I came back to it. I find the two records to have similar moods and atmosphere, but maybe it's just me and you'll disagree with me on that.

I couldn't be happier. It happened to me with a few bands, and the moment you hear it you feel like the band's written it for you, and only for you. Best feeling in the world. Well, almost best feeling in the world.
About Mayo Dot, I noticed that album being talked about and praised a lot. My curiosity was aroused when the cover for the album was revealed, I am just waiting for a good moment to try it out. Thank you for reminding me about them. I'll notify you if I think there is/isn't basis for comparison with this one. I need a new favourite band, it's been too long, and you raised my hopes now  .
