I was very tempted to vote for The Alarm's Change, which is their masterpiece, but I had to go with The Police's masterpiece, Ghost in the Machine.

This poll includes the last album by The Smiths, so they'll be stepping aside and making way for the Crimson Queen in the fifth poll in the series. Thumbs Up

 2 stars 1988: Toyah - Prostitute
 4 stars 2008: Toyah - In the Court of the Crimson Queen - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_k2ZD-QUpBvTpXu1k16J6Cevs3yHSKX86M

Same.

I think that Juju is a great album from one of my very favourites. Next comes Echo & the Bunnymen's Ocean Rain, then Cocteau Twins' Victorialand, the The Cure's Pornography and The Smiths.

                      quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond

The fifth Comsat Angels album is rather weak and may *not* win for me. Up until then... Cool
(I do admit there are a few other strong albums here... I like Juju in particular.)

Some great albums in these post-punk polls. Very difficult to choose favourites. Smile
