"Watcher of the skies" is great too, and don't forget "Can-Utility and the Coastliners"!
about "Supper" it's a bit uneven and they explored the whole concept better on "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" over a course of 2 albums, "Supper" sounds to me like a less developed version of that

my problem with "Watcher" - too much Mellofuckingtron or is that "Banksynths"? (i still have problems telling one from the other)
