Does anyone here enjoy XTC besides me?

They've been around Britain since 1976.  They're still kind of around but I haven't heard any of their newer stuff.  Their 80's material is really strong Post-Enlightenment power pop.    I think Andy Partridge is one of the great songwriters.  I don't think they're as well known as they probably should be.  They wrote/recorded consistently strong material through the better parts of two decades.

i like Life Begins At The Hop, Generals And Majors and Making Plans For Nigel best.  they're totally underrated 80's pop.
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.
