Eternity is the only album of theirs I don't listen to. It just never clicked with me at all.

Houses Of The Mole was bloody fantastic, just behind Psalm 69 for me. A coupla tracks off Rio Grande Blood were decent alright but after that it's shite all the way down.

Have you heard the 'raw' version of In Case You Didn't Feel Like Showing Up? I can't remember what it's called, they released it a couple of years ago, but it's shite. The existing aobum was so heavily overdubbed that the raw, live tracks sound terrible and sloppy in comparison. The only plus is that it has Breathe and The Land Of Rape And Honey (and that shite Jello Biafra monologue) included.

I haven't heard that at all but the curiosity will surely get to me. Can't understand why there are so few tunes on the original actually, the 2 extras would have rounded it out nicely. I dunno what happened to me with Houses of the Mole, I think I just missed Paul Barker too much and never got into it like the others. I used to fell like that about Dark Side of the Spoon though and I love it now so maybe it deserves another go as well

I have an audio rip of the VHS version, bit rough but it's got those at least. That alternative version has a full set, some Lard & Revolting Cocks songs on it if memory serves.

Barker was a loss alright (and they became more conventional without him), but that one was great, as close in sound as they got to Psalm 69 I think. Animositisomina had a great, raw sound, definitely an underrated one.

Never got on with Filth Pig or Dark Side, for some reason. Haven't heard either for years, I must give them another go. The Lay Lady Lay cover is excellent though.

Queensryche - One More Time. What a song and some of the best lyrics ever. They really hit too close to the truth for their own good.
Guess there is no option but to continue with some Crimson Glory.
