"Visions Of Excess" and "Blast Of Silence" were hugely impactful on my teenage mind, leading me to many great artists. Syd Straw jumped out at me, and though it took me years I eventually discovered the majesty of Robert Kidney's Numbers Band. Lydon, Stipe, Blegvad, Thompson - doesn't get much better than that.
For me, the hidden gem of their catalog is "Drunk With Passion". Opening with a great Stipe track, Amanda Kramer's great and then Mould destroys everything with "Dying From The Inside Out" followed by Bob Kidney closing it out with his inimitable style.

yeah it's absolutely a great album. For me, 1, Visions of Excess, Drunk with Passion, and This is How it Feels are the only necessary albums and I'd have a hard time telling you which one is my favorite, since they are basically four different groups.
