I have it all.
The Headless Children and the S/T debut album are MUST haves. The Last Command and Inside The Electric Circus lean more to the commercial side. They're good but not as good. I actually prefer Still Not Black Enough to The Crimson Idol. KFD is one heavy grim industrial metal album. Their two most recent albums, Babylon and Golgotha are very good. Albums to avoid until you are completing the collection are both Neon God albums and Helldorado. Say what you want about Lawless's voice, or lack thereof, but it has an intensity to it and he can really deliver some great angst, color, and shade with his raspy delivery. It works well for a lot of their material. I absolutely love WASP. I grew up on 'em. I think S/T, Last Command and Headless Children are essential. "Mean Man" is a monster tune.
