How ironic, the lead singer is the sanest one of the bunch.

I loved Lightning Crashes, but that's pretty much it. Secret Samadhi didn't do much for me, and I didn't follow them at all after that one. I did enjoy seeing them as part of a festival in 1999, and thought it was a really good performance. That stuff about Hynes is crazy.

Wow. I thought they broke up more than 20 years ago.

The last song I remember of theirs was the one that had the video of the ocean wave flooding the alley. Tuned out after that.

That is a crazy article. It sound like money and the pursuit of it was the root of a lot of the problems.

What a mess, that's really too bad, all around.

As much as I like Throwing Copper, it was always edged out by Mental Jewelry for me, that's a great debut album.
