Psst...having the same taste as TH is not a good thing.
Too bad you weren't into the album though, but I'm glad that A New Kind of Water left a good impression on you since that's the best track off of the album. Like grindy said, they have a very singular sound that I find really infectious. Plus, given that it's from 1981 I'd say it's years ahead of its time. I also discovered the album in high school during a pretty significant period of music discovery for me, so there's a strong bias there.
Also I didn't notice that you had mentioned female vocals, I thought that you just liked vocals. So for my next rec:
Fifty Foot Hose - Cauldron
