Apple O is the only one that's really amazed me yet, and it took a while to grow - I like all their stuff but can't always listen to it - when I'm in the right mood Apple O is just transcendentally beautiful, especially in the way the album as a whole is structured - also saw some live footage that I like a lot (look at the duck!) - enemy, your avatar is splendiferous

This band is awesome, I'm surprised there's no thread dedicated to them. Their album Apple O' is brilliant with their newest album Offend Maggie in a close second. Seeing them live a second time recently was truly awesome, I can not get enough of them. What do you think?

Offend Maggie is for the most part absolute trash. Friend Opportunity was miles, MILES better than Offend Maggie. Offend Maggie is the sound of a band, late in their career, with not much more to say and having a hard time saying it.

They're certainly an acquired taste. You have to have some oddball weirdo in you to like this band. You also have to sort of focus on the rhythms. I also can't often stand her voice, but it's as you said...

I saw them sometime ago. The small asian lead singer really has a presence on stage.

I haven't had many listens to it yet but i thinks it's not too bad so far, Friend Opportunity was just a little bit too scattered for me, this one feels as bit more coherent.

Wow. Are we talking about the same albums? Friend Opportunity basically flows seamlessly on the hypothetical 'first side' and then delves into odder territory on side two, but there's clearly some sort of common thread running through it. Offend Maggie is a complete repulsive mess. It's good for 3 or so songs, then becomes one of the most scattered, pointless records I have heard in living memory.

You wait 'til the second half of the album starts to grate...

I've heard that this band do have an acquired taste. But I'm intrigued (and also an oddball weirdo) and so I want to check them out. Any suggestions of where I should start?
