marshall stak	Mar 26 2008 8:15 PM Flying Nun helped my poor ears survive the 80's and nothing beats "Death & the Maiden" or the Verlaines!

Goldbug	Feb 4 2008 6:26 PM A band I was once in was recording a song I wrote and the engineer said it sounded like the Verlaines. I said "cool, I love the Verlaines." He said he didn't. I knew then that this person was not to be trusted. Wanker. Insult me, but do not insult the Verlaines. Cheers. Carl.
