    De-Loused was something else. I remember when that record came out and it blew my mind. Still does. But never really followed them after that, with Frances The Mute and 11 minute songs I just went off them. Saw them live in Manchester probably 9 or 10 years back and they were amazing to watch.

  • saw them live opening for RHCP. Absolutely mind bogglingly terrible.

    RHCP weren't that great either.

    Always found them an easy band to admire, but a difficult band to like, if that makes sense. Liked Deloused and Frances the Mute, got completely lost after that.

    Shame they've broken up though, undoubtedly talented musicians.

    Its just as well as far as I am concerned. Deloused was awesome and parts of Francis too but the rest was really only good if you were on acid.
    Forced to endure, what I cannot forgive.
