    Earlier this year I drove 10 hours with my wife to see them in Sante Fe at Meow Wolf on my birthday. It was amazing.

    Very underrated band. I saw them once in the late 90s and I thought it was one of the best shows I've ever seen. My friends were really snobby about music and didn't want to even stay and listen to them (after some local band we liked opened) because they were on mainstream radio stations. That really pissed me off.

    One of best bands of all time, Double Negative is one of best albums of the decade

      "amazing grace" still kills me to death! ;) the entire album is a friggin dirge, but, seriously: "it sounds like razors in your ears / that's how you sing amazing grace," and "someday I'll give it all away / that's how you sing amazing grace." (which is to say nothing of "little argument with myself," as the penultimate argue naked sort of end of the beginning of love…!!) RIP mimi.

      Well, that's presumptuous. Aside from smoking weed, I don't think Alan is a drug guy.

    He had to mention minimalism. I knew Floyd, especially Waters Floyd, had to be a big influence. I love his less-is-more approach.

    Incredible how the low first album is better than these albums.
