I kind of fell out with B&S after Dear Catastrophe Waitress. Great depth of catalogue but never a complete release to satisfy me. Sometimes they were too twee and it just felt forced. My favs are mostly Bsides like Desperation Made A Fool Of Me or Take That Carriage Clock or Jonathan David. Arab Strap is probably the best album for me.

Saw them live in maybe 2005 and it was great. Not sure if I need to see them again though.

the boy with the arab strap, if you're feeling sinister, dear catastrophe waitress, and push barman are all top notch to me (a few songs here or there i don't care for, but nothing to bring down each album)...the rest are very hit or miss

Love B&S. Tigermilk through The Boy with the Arab Strap is an amazing stretch of music. Love Murdoch's lyrics, despite some of the religious overtones.
