Nah, it's all market squares and garden parties ... when they're on speaking terms that is.

I like them but my mind has not been blown...what do you recommend? Ask 10 fans of the band and you will get 10 different answers. I would start with Clutching At Straws from the Fish era then maybe Brave from the Hogarth line up. Also the last five tracks of Afraid of Sunlight are pretty magical. If you have Spotify then the long songs - Neverland, Ocean Cloud, Happiness is the Road, This Strange Engine, A Few Words For The Dead etc - are all worth hearing outside of the context of their host albums. If that does't reel you in then nothing will!

Clutching at Straws is a good entry point, the live Fish era is a good overview as well I would stick with This Strange Engine for a while, they don't do big and obvious these days it takes a while to sink in .Failing that as Mr B says Brave or the double Cd of Marbles

Would recommend you buy that and Marbles By The Sea as well. I am a zealot though!
