Dark, moody, rumbly, creepy...lots of bass to add to the vibe.....seriously, I found a bunch of old Shriekback--their "Care" and "Tench" material--and I stand in amazement. "Clear Trails" is one of THE COOLEST, albiet creepy, songs EVER!! How could I have forgotten about these gems. "sexthinkone", anyone ? What do the rest of you guys think ? Can I get an amen!?!?

I love shriekback and agree with your analysis of them. I especially love "Lined Up" which I think you included on your cd that you sent to me.[:)]
(oh...AMEN!)

"Hand on My Heart" is my personal fave. Also like "All Lined Up" and "My Spine is the Bass Line."

What's the best CD?

Great band. Never got their due as far as I am concerned. Nemesis is definitely one of the best songs to dance to in a club; plus a very cool video. Best album a toss up between Oil and Gold and Care.
