Fabulous Muscles is great, and has one of the best openings in Crank Heart-->I Love the Valley OH. Very good album, maybe I should check the other stuff.

I downloaded Knife Play and it is pretty good, but FM is supposedly their most accessible album. Knife Play is a challenging record.

Just bought "fabulous Muscles" today. My friend played it for me on a ride back from the airport. I'm really digging it and the more i listen the more i enjoy it.

The scream of "OH"in I luv the valley gives me chills. Very cool and i can't wait to listen to this record on my lay over in DC on a red eye flight. I have a feeling its going to be very dark and dreamy sounding.
