I generally like some XTC stuff, and this one has some very melodic background stuff, but the rhythms in it make me feel like a am going to start having heart palpitations. I guess I'll have to turn it down next time it comes on so that I don't die.

I know that sounds like one of those stupid rumors floating around, I just wanted to clarify. Someone please give it to me straight, cause XTC's music shows real genius. Or at least that is my opinion. They never broke up over Andy Partridge's stage fright, which came about over 20 years ago. They just stopped touring. Since then, they've put out numerous brilliant records.
They are currently kind of stagnant and possibly broken up. Colin Moulding, 1/2 of the current XTC, is laying low and not really into recording anymore. |

Goody, pre-christian paganism. I like, lots.
It's even having a dig at the christians, not so subtly pointing out that the symbolism was incorporated into early christian churches.

Hey, I LOVE this CD ... and Greenman is an excellent cut. The whole CD has a very "Spring-based" theme. Nice selection, Bill!

This was released in 1999? An awesome blast from the past.
