Haven't listened to the lion's share of Cardiacs' product. From what I've heard, they aren't even in the same league as IQ. I'd rather explore City Boy's output from what I know of them as a quality investment in time and energy.

Why do you think IQ 'peaked' in the 80's, when everything they have done since represents one of the finest bodies of prog ever released?? Ermm

First departure of Nicholls - I saw them in 85 and loved it (along with those first two albums), then he left and it all got predictable and I lost interest in them.  Sorry to disagree.
