Their last album (I think it's called, "Jesus Wept...") was their least
commercially successful yet most artistic. Basically what they did - (Full
disclosure: I heard the album but don't own it) was make a trip-hop album
before trip-hop was hip (say that 5 times fast...). They do like 4 cover
tunes - I can recall one Prince tune and "One In a Lifetime" by Talking
Heads, and none of the covers bear any resemblance to the original except
for the title, the lyrics and maybe some phrasing. The Talking Heads cover
really stood out though.
