Never was any good to me. The 7 minute beer break.

Jarvo - I respect your knowledge and history but that statement is just complete and utter bollocks.
Weeellll, we need a lil' bit of controversy around here!
It's also music for lads with small dicks!
FAO: Non-regulars
This is a barely-veiled dig at "wee" Shuglet.

Those are the ones I usually skip.
In fairness, are they over-rated though? I would've thought the majority here don't like 'em already!

That's exactly what I think about Lowlife. Cheesy gay-disco music. Hasn't aged well.
NB I reckon this is about the 20th time in five years that I've made the above comment on NOOL.

That's part of the Technique concept innit?
I would have come up with that if I had a decent memory!

I wasn't talking about just NOOLers.
The Band and the record label seem to rate them well, as they are on on the comps

Both Fine Time / Don't Do It are the outstanding moments from that era.
The rest is just pap.
Fact. End of. That is all. Etc et cetera.

Confusion is a (flawed) masterpiece
I played it out last week (along with Act on Instinct by Streetlife- Anyone got the rest of their stuff by the way?) and it went down a bloody storm. Got loads of young whippersnappers asking about it :D

You've been pilfering that phrase from "Sunshine" lately!
Still think the rest of Technique beats the shit out of say, Brotherhood

No, I haven't. Although I once wrote 'that is all' here about three months ago. And every other mug uses it now!

I really like all three of these. Couldn't rate them highly enough.
I've never really taken to Thieves Like Us, although there'll be plenty who love it.

I think your CDs must be mislabelled.
Mind you , i enjoy dream attack and vanishing point but their not in my top 20. Turn, i never understood the fuss about it and usually skip over it.
confusion represents what was going on in new york in the early 80's. Therefore, i think yanks may rank it higher.
In my opinion...
Ceremony. [yes, Ceremony.]
Tempfookin'tation! [so overrated it gets played at the club too damn much! MORE TPfookin'K!!! :\pissedoff:]
TBtHoG.
Crystal. [...even though I love the song...]
Cries & fookin' Whispers!!
BM.
Thieves Like Us.
BLfookin'T!!! 
...AND NO, 'TECHNIQUE' IS NOT OVERRATED!!!
...'Brotherhood' is.
