Well it was only a matter of time before I made this thread really, but I can't believe I have neglected it so long.
Of the people here who know of/have been introduced to Comus I don't think I've heard a single complaint, they have had a long lasting influence on a wide range of genres. From Current 93 to Opeth.
Their album First Utterance has an RYM rating of 4.14 from over 1000 reviews.
They're basically the bomb.
And as always, if you're interested in checking them out just PM or state an interest here
