"Kiss" is bloody amazing - both versions. They did one LP ("Plastic Venus") before Swim~ but you'll probably never find it. Apparently, they are working on a new LP for Swim~ as I type. Does anyone have the lyrics for this album? That's my one problem with it - a lack of diction. I'm a believer that unless something is designed to be sound work then if there's a narrative it's always nice to actually be able to -hear- it!!!
