Noticed a lot of fans on the site with the TOTD threads, anyway I've never really bothered with them (not intentionally - just never got round to listening to them). Anyway I'm writing to Santa at the moment so may ask for album - what's the best?

    Eh, BC aren't that great. If I had to get one I'd go for The Vertigo of Bliss

    All of their albums tend to have a different sound. Puzzle is the one that really made them mainsteam.

    Everyone has different opinions on their album but as a personal recommendation, I'd say try 'Blackened Sky'

    They're all great... I think Infinity Land's the best but I didn't like it much on the first spin... In fact, I don't think I liked any of them the first time :lol: had to see them live 3 times before I got it.

    The new stuff's a bit lardy... It's OK but it's not genius. Live, it's better but the album spent too much time in the oven.
