I enjoy an occasion AATT song, but mostly for a goof. That singer is way over-the-top with the melodrama. The band's music is appealing enough on the first album even if not for a goof. Surely, it's very comparable to early Cure. Very restrained. "Wallpaper Dying" is the title of one song that I can actually remember. Perhaps the others didn't make enough of an impression on me.
Later stuff I heard started to dabble more in the "chamber rock" realm. I had a copy of the single for "Lady D'Arbanville." The string music was too precious for me to bear, and the vocals were even 200% more over-the-top. I sold it back very quickly and never looked back. Maybe I've missed something since then...I dunno.
