Great band! Saw them at The Gov and my group and I were probably the youngest there.

They're still making fantastic music as well. Untitled #23 is a great album from start to finish.
 
Just a few random album rankings of my favourite Church albums.
Priest>Sometime>The Blurred Crusade>Starfish>Seance>Of Skins... Still undecided on Untitled 23, which I haven't cranked too much.

Dome
The Maven
It's No Reason
Fly
The Disillionist
NSEW
Reptile
Almost With You

Seen them live a couple of times, they always put on a great show. The best Church gig I saw was at the Belly Up Tavern in San Diego around 10 years ago. Awesome venue as it was pretty much just a pub so you could stand as close to the band as you liked. Managed to get right in front of Marty Willson-Piper who is a great showman and a top bloke, was drinking some of the beers we offered him and high fiving the crowd in between songs.

Tantalized was one of the highlights of that gig. This is a recording of that song from that same venue (may well have been the same gig I was at). Watch out for Marty's 'Pete Townshend' style windmills at the end.

Could probably have included The Maven in my list as well, just for the great guitar solo alone. That Sometime Anywhere album was a decent album but different to most typical Church albums. That was back when it was basically a Steve Kilbey/Marty Willson-Piper duo, Peter Koppes had left and they mainly used drum machines rather than a proper drummer.

They sounded a lot better and more Church like when Koppes returned and they got Tim Powles on drums for the Hologram of Baal album (one of my favourite Church albums and a real return to form).
 
Looks like they need some cash...

Noticed this add the other night.

Wierd song to use as a car commercial, can't blame the Church for taking the royalties though if they're silly enough to offer it.

Would have thought this song would have been better as a car commercial*.

*Not really I was just using it as an excuse to post the awesome Reptile vid again.

That was a top rendition. Thanks for posting it.
