^ A band I got into yesterday, consisting of former members of the Auteurs and the Jesus and Mary Chain. Only three albums to their name, of which the Facts Of Life on the left there is probably the best one. They peddled this very interesting hybrid of indie, pop and trip-hop. Fabulous stuff in other words.

I could go for a link to Facts of Life, if you'd be so kind

This is a great Orange Juice album. Now that you've heard this one, try their first album, You Can't Hide Your Love Forever. Personally I prefer it this one.

I've read a lot about the Scottish post-punk scene, but not heard of that album. I'll keep an eye peeled for it.

This has brought back so many great memories. Possibly the best 3rd wave Ska album and one of the very best overall. Thanks to Satchmo for this.

Not one of the most praised Cure albums but I really like this album personally.

A strong argument could be made that it's one of the only 3rd wave ska albums worth owning

Cannibal Corpse-Gallery of Suicide

I actually enjoyed it more than Tomb of the Mutilated
