[Scourge of Malice]

Hmmm California and Angel Dust are definitely ones I would consider too... also the Directors Cut (fantomas).

 

[worldwide_suicide]

whil i agree Director's Cut is probably the best Fantomas record, it is not GREAT...

Kaada/Patton, on the other hand, makes me wet my panties

 

[Scourge of Malice]

Heh, I personally LOVE the Director's Cut.

never got around to hearing the kaada/patton album... my Mike Patton obsession wore off a few years ago, although Peeping Tom almost startled my interest again. I'll get around to it sometime

 

[worldwide_suicide]

well.. it happened to me also, i got obsessed with MP but then the excitement wore off.. that's why i allow me enough time between MP periods now

KP is basically ambient creepy stuff... nothing really spectacular, but very well done imo, you should give it a try

 

[Braighs]

Good luck!
