I'd like to redeem myself here.  On the first listening I felt that they had
a bit of that depressing Cure sound but after listening a few more times I 
cringe at that comparison.  I first heard them on NPR's "Mountain Stage" if 
that tells you anything.

Another redemption. This is better stated as I want to dance and sit and listen
to them at the same time.  See? Catch-22.  Anyway I agree the lyrics are great.

Also can anyone recommend an album for:
  Annaboulaboula
  Dead Can Dance
  Pogues
  The Legendary Pink Dots

Thanks in advance
