This is a very accurate representation of where my head was at it 1991. All stellar releases. ALL of them.

I tried going on their last night and the thing I liked most about the site being able to do the search by genre by year seems to be gone. There was an error message that popped up about that feature not being available right now or disabled or something to that order.

It does list a bunch of stuff that was reissued in some form that did not come out in 1991, though.

Couldn't agree more; "Drive That Fast" is one of THE defining songs of that whole era in between post-punk/goth and shoegaze/dream-pop. They blurred the line between those two so well. I think SFW is their best album, too. I think if they'd toured for the (really good) album they put out 8-9 years ago, they might not be as underrated nowadays?

I agree with your assessment, JGJR. They're incredibly underrated, and maybe a tour for their reunion record would have helped. SFW is probably my favorite, but their other albums rank high for me as well, particularly The Death of Cool. Slightly off topic, but I think Julian Swales — KOD's guitarist — deserves to be as well known as Kevin Shields or The Edge. He managed to make his guitar sound like an orchestra with his effects, and it totally transports the listener. Awesome band.

SFW is probably my favorite because I heard it first. I do like the first 3 albums a lot. 4th album is good too from what I remember but I don't have a copy.
