Re: The Official OWB Thread
Karl listed Talk Talk's album 'Spirit of Eden' as one of his favourite albums, and said it reminded him 'to try harder'.

I think this was on the old Dirty website, possibly in a what was on Karl's Ipod.

There is some direct influence that can be heard on 'Dubnobasswithmyheadman', 'Tongue' would not feel out of place on 'Spirit of Eden' or the following/last album 'Laughing Stock'.

I wonder how many others here are fans of Talk Talk, the strength of song writing is common to both bands, and also the space in the 'soundscapes' they create.

Two of my very favourite bands.
