There's some good tunes on them, and I could make one good CD of a dozen songs from both those records.

Like I said, otherwise I enjoyed everything they did post Fish...except for Holidays In Eden which was a real bore. I didn't actually like Brave originally, until I saw them do parts of it live on the Sunlight tour. Now I love it. And I think Marbles is one of the greatest albums they've done ever.

Read back... working band.

They tried a Porcupine Tree and Radiohead : sound on those albums. A couple of tracks worked and a couple did not.

H's home life was falling apart too (in fact, it's over since about the beginning of the year). It's hard to compose with that sort of crap looming. It's quite evident in House.
