Anyone remember this band, aside from me?

Yeah, Souvlaki is one of the great shoegazer albums.

I have "Pygmalion" on MP3. I wish I had it on CD, but it has proven to be very difficult to find. I may end up special ordering it if I can.

What's funny is that this album, which literally destroyed the band, is probably my favorite. I really love "Blue Skied An' Clear."

I saw them with Ride as well. The Mar/Apr issue of Magnet has a cover story on The History of Shoegazing. Ride, My Bloody Valentine, Curve (one of my all-time favorites!), Chapterhouse, etc. Interesting read.
