Deloused in the Comatorium.

Frances is good but Deloused is their best. Haven't liked the last 2 as much. The live album (scab dates?) is good if you don't mind 15 minute tracks of random stuff live babies crying and people talking.

The live album (scab dates?) is good if you don't mind 15 minute tracks of random stuff live babies crying and people talking.

Scabdates makes me angry in my pants. It's the worst live album I've ever heard, both in terms of mixing/audio quality and overall musical quality. You can't have a trebley guitar like Omars that loud in the mix without compensating with bass sounds.

I don't think you should go near it unless you get well well well into everything they've ever done and lust for more, hah.
In fact, I think that was one of the albums that sent me into a spiral of liking them less and less by every new song they made.

Deloused is the one.

I get the feeling they're the kind of band that hates it when the audience gets and likes what they're doing...as if they always want to leave the audience stumped.
Like they'll play a show, but only play two "songs" and then do an hour of "space jams".

They've actually stumped me out of buying their records.....but that first album and tour were insane.

Like everyone has said: Deloused is a great beginner cd.

After that they just get better and better....

Bahaha, That's exactly how I feel.

Deloused is the ultimate best. The other albums just get progressively worse after that.
It was good while it lasted...
