Which of our favorite NW acts do we know and love despite them having released only an EP (or 2, or more) or even 7"s/ 12"s ? (does anybody still do EPs anymore?)
I don't mean artists like the Cocteau Twins who put out lots of EPs among their frequent album releases. I mean artists who ONLY had an EP or 2, (or 7"/12"), and that was it.
I have been curious about this forever...the idea that for some artists whom we LOVE, we only know them through a very brief musical catalogue.

I am aware of 1 Crown of Thorns' EP.
Did Seona Dancing have an actual full-length album?

Thanks in advance, guys!

Just a few. And I should add a disclaimer that they only had a twelve or 7 inch EP, or just a '45 single, as far as I KNOW:

Philisteens (12" EP)
The Tan (12" Single) - We're Hangin' Out
Bone Symphony
Language
Innocence In Danger - Violate The Video

I'm only aware of an EP from the New Models--would have liked to see more by them.

Ear Candy - Self Defence..

That was EP that needed to be followed up.

Did State of the Art ever get an EP?
I know they had about 4-5 songs spread out through 3 releases and some B-sides.

Cool It Reba - Money Fall Out The Sky (Hannibal HNEP 3302) came out in '82. It was one of the VOICE's top ten eps of 83. This is an undiscovered/long forgotten classic!
Sounds like the Heads/Television/XTC

Major Thinkers.

Also, after 4 singles, Leisure Process I believe had an album in the can, but it was never released to my knowledge.

I can think of a few,

1. Empire - released 3 ep's in 85-86. Great songs with superb arrangement. One of the members, John Uriel went on to work with Claudia Brucken. And like Leisure Process, they had an lp ready for release, but I don't think it saw t
