Consumer Guide Reviews:

Floodland [Elektra, 1987]
There's dumber gothic--cf. Melody Maker poll winners Fields of the Nephilim for something totally ridiculous. At least these guys cut their doldrums with crass--they go disco and drop proper nouns. But Andrew Eldritch's sepulchrally stentorian stylings could arise only in a nation where David Bowie is a voice for the ages. C+

Vision Thing [Elektra, 1990]
