Pandemonium is a beast. They've got a really strong discography. I even love Brighter Than a Thousand Suns, in all its '80s new wave glory. Some Joke fans abhor it, but I think it's brilliant in its own right, even if it stands apart from their other works.

When it comes to their early stuff, I don't know exactly why, but I always liked their second album What's THIS For...! more than their debut (which I suppose is an unpopular opinion). Their rhythm section was in TOP form for that album. It just pounds.
