three albums? I thought there was only one (in sides). Besides, didn't
times fly come out after snivilisation? I thought the box was pretty
good as well, and even In Sides had some nice tracks.
I wouldn't be complaining so much, but you can't help but feel a little
let-down when a band you really rate releases something that just
doesn't do it for you at all - I mean, I had some nigh-on religious
experiences seing them live.
Admittedly, I seem to be in a minority - In Sides was their best selling
album ever after all. Go figure.

It's all personal taste really - pointless arguing about it.
