I've never actually bought an album of theirs but like what I've heard by them a lot. My friends tell me campfire headphase is the best place to start, would you agree?

Campfire Headphase is the most accessible. My favourite is Geogaddi (by a very narrow margin), but Music Has the Right to Children is generally considered to be their best. I think.

The eps are all worth checking out too. You won't regret it.

wow, i thought campfire headphase was their least popular release. i'd say just get it all, dive right in... more specifically, maybe go like this

in a beautiful place out in the country
music has the right to children
geogaddi
twoism
hi scores

I think it is amongst fans. But it's also the most accessible. There may be a link??

It's still bloody ace. It's all great.

oh definitely. i wasn't disappointed with it when it came out so much as surprised, but over time it really grew on me.

I wouldn't say that their music is unaccessible at all, they are one of the truly easiest groups to listen to.

A little bit off topic but does anyone here like Múm? Some of their stuff, especially on the album Finally We Are No One, I feel is in a very similar vein to BOC.

Dayvan Cowboy is a song I will listen to for the rest of my life.
