Comus, I love it, the more i hear it the more hooked I get, First Utterance is pure brutality clothed in beauty and peace..

I finally nailed down a copy of First Utterance about a month ago, based on recommendations here.  I must say I'm not normally a fan of acoustic folk music, but this turns out to be quite a fine record.  "Diana" has to be my favorite track, as bits of it are frequently lodged in my cranium.....

I somehow found 'Song To Comus' at an out of town cd shop. From the stream I knew I had to have it.
Drip Drip is one of the greatest songs ever written, Song to Comus will never stop being amazing.

I gots First Utterance!

About a month ago for 5 bucks.  My friend exposed me to the band a few years ago because he got a vinyl reissue and let me borrow it. 

Its a grooooooood album.  The liner notes even tell you its good.  I mean David Bowie liked the band a lot.  How could they be bad?

Here I am !
 
I bought the compilation "Song to Comus" about a year ago. As many here said the second CD is not that bad but far from the amazing "First utterance". I also like "Bite" very very much. And this is one of the very few times that I love the bonus tracks as much as I love the original LP. The b-singles and the prev unreleased "The color of darkness" are excelent. I think this one is a masterpiece !!!
 
I also purchased a week ago Spyrogyra's "A Canterbury tale" and waiting to Jan dukes de gray which I ordered so this realy hooked me on acid folk.
