Does anyone like? I heard about them from WIRE and picked up "Datapanik in the year zero". 30 Seconds Over Tokyo is absolutely brilliant.

Love them (up to a certain point).
The earliest singles are my favorite, but I love the Modern Dance, New Picnic Time and Dub Housing LPs a lot as well.

Yes very old and good band in spit of its many reformes

I love Modern Dance and Dub Housing, but haven't heard much else.

Awesome and underrated band. Despite being critics darlings no-one seems to listen to them all that much.

Dub Housing is one of my favourite records as is The Modern Dance. New Picnic Time is also nice as is Song of the Bailing Man. The Art of Walking has some really great moments but is patchy and probably their oddest record. Mayo Thompson was probably more involved than he should of been perhaps.

Not all that much of a fan of the later stuff that I have heard but the new one is really excellent, probably one of my favourite records of the year.

I think I'll pick up Dub Housing, I was looking for more stuff to get into. I haven't heard any stuff from Why I hate Women yet either.

i love em although only aware of a few tracks off dub houseing and have the modern dance which is great........
actually im criminally underprepared to post on this thread!!!!

Yeah, Final Solution and 30 Seconds Over Tokyo are both amazing. The guitar riffs in 30 seconds are so awesome.

the dude that ran my local music store GAVE me a copy of the modern dance when i said i hadn't heard it. i went back and gave him money after i listened to it. what a great album, along with "are we not men?", it is one of the greatest albums to come out of ohio.
