Where's Switchblade Symphony???

Any fans? Last I heard Tina was singing in another band called Tre'Lux. I never got around to hearing them though. shrug A lot of their fans didn't like the route they were goin' after Serpentine Gallery, but I like Three Calamities and BJFF better than Serpentine Gallery. I like their darkwave sound moreso than I like their light industrial. Maybe it's because I heard Bread and Jam for Frances first. Serpentine Gallery was actually the last album I heard, so I went out of release order. I like BJFF, but it sounds like the songs weren't mixed as good as they should've been.

I like 'Serpentine Gallery' the best. They broadened their sound with subtle trip hop beats after that, but many of the original goth fans didn't go for it. I bought the live DVD recently, but haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

I still haven't gotten a chance to get the dvd. But yeah, they did take on more of a trip hop sound. Like on 3 Calamities.....it's so bass heavy compared to the other albums and I think it's mixed better, a crisp sound.

I've seen them live a few times. The first time was when they opened for Christian Death. The last time might have been when they toured with Gary Numan. They were the last great band signed by Cleopatra.
