IDF's LP *is* good...too bad I don't have any time to listen to it. But I think it serves as more than a Swans substitute--include Sonic Youth, Live Skull, and some industrial influences. (Swans implies slow, which this isn't.) >>From: hogge@p.cs.uiuc.edu (John Hogge) >>Subject: Top 19 of 1986 >Ohmigod, someone with intelligence and good taste, quick John, hide before >they find out about you and silence you for good ...

Influences include Savage Republic, Joy Division (vocals), and some industrial stuff. A killer album. --John
