Malcolm and I talked about these guys. Is the comp you have called Natural History? If so, then tracks 12 (I believe in you) and 13 (desire) are from Spirit of Eden (1988), which I had mentioned to you as being very cool. I think there are no tracks from Laughing Stock (1991), which I haven't listened to yet, but online chatter has suggested is just as, if not more, removed from the accessible/ popular potential offerings of their earlier works, than the Eden album. Also interesting is that no one from the band will talk about "those days". Unanimously, they maintain it's "such a long time ago" and would rather not discuss it. Cool.
I'm not going to try to embed this because it's a list of files, but I figure if you are sufficiently interested, you will make the extra effort to watch. The Spirit of Eden album-

I have always enjoyed these guys. I find it interesting when an artist or group feel it necessary to distance themselves from a particular era of their work. Happens a lot and is a bit of a disservice to the fans IMO.
