I thought I¹d respond to this one if only because my audities digest just
came into my email box and I am playing their Regeneration album at
considerable volume as I was reading it!
I¹m ashamed to say I¹d never even heard this band until just before
Christmas when my friend David Celia who has opened for them a lot both here
and in the UK lent me this CD. Suffice to say he has not got it back and I
play it 3 or 4 times a week. Incredible songwriting...wry, witty lyrics,
sublime arrangements and an overall tone that is not a million miles away
from the best Radiohead stuff, without the misery. I¹ll even go out on a
limb and suggest that this album is better than anything Radiohead have put
out, even The Bends.
Now that I have pretty much consumed this album, can any more seasoned fans
tell me which album to buy next?

P.S. FINALLY got The Perishers last album from Parasol and have listened to
it a dozen times in the last three days. Incredible stuff. Any fans of
Travis will Lur-huv it!
