David Holmes - one great album (Let's Get Killed), one average one (This Film's Crap...), one completely unlistenable album (that last one, whatever it was called, something to do with exits). But that's just me.

I'd say Bow Down to The Exit Sign was his best. Its got a load of elements of good stuff with great vocalists. I thought Lets Get Killed was boring, and This Films Crap only slightly better cos at least it sounds a bit emotive and cinematic. And The Free Association was ace too. David Holmes - a little bit too famous for his own good but pretty damn good. I wasn't too keen on his producing Blues Explosion though.
