FINALLY picked up an album by this band, I have been meaning to try to get into them for a couple of years now, just never done it. Bought "The Soft Bulletin" today, pretty good stuff. I wasn't feeling it that much immediately, but by about half way through I was really liking everything I heard. Currently on my 3rd or 4th listen, really good album.
Any suggestions on where to go next? I am guessing Yoshimi would be a good one based on how I like The Soft Butteltin, how is there older stuff?

You bought Soft Bulletin just a month too early though. End of January they are re-releasing it, combined with a 5.1 surround sound dvd, much like they did for Yoshimi (the 5.1 mix on Yoshimi is great, btw).
Has anyone else found the hidden message on the Yoshimi packaging?

It was a band I was going in blind on but they just didn't move the needle.
I do own the Heady Nugs box set and really like their Pink Floyd cover.
I’m looking forward to their coming Nick Cave covers album too.
I so want to go see them Monday night, they're playing only 15 minutes from where I live, but Monday night shows ruin my week... that one will be a game time decision.
