Anyone remember this band? I don't think they really took off like their record label expected them to, but put out some very good music over the years. The debut is their best, but the second album was pretty good too, even though it was obviously reaching for the charts in quite a few places.

If they came out during the peak of the whole industrial rock trend instead of at the end of it, they probably would have made a bigger impact, but I hear they still have a pretty decent cult following.

I enjoyed some of his stuff, but only owned the album with the snake on the cover—I think that was the second. It was nice to listen to, but I sorta moved on. I think I sold that back, but I may have it stashed in a box somewhere.

Wow, I remember seeing him perform at The Roxy several years ago. What's he doing these days?

I used to like that "Pretty When You Cry" song. The thing that kind of bugged me about this album was how low it was mixed. It seems like whenever I made a mix and I got to a song from this disc, I always had to turn up the volume to hear it better...kind of like Massive Attack's Blue lines.

I hear he's getting ready to release some stuff through his website like he's done in the past. I don't think it is new material, just a collection of demos and whatnot.

I own two (is that all there is?). I liked the first one enough to buy the second, but really never got into the second and now haven't listened to either in a very long time.
