Pere Ubu - Modern Dance + Dub Housing

I am somewhat swamped at work now, so I will keep my reviews brief for the next while... I will also update many dead links, so those of you who are reading this through RSS will see many old postings - sorry about that.

The first two albums from the notorious art-punk (or, as they called themselves, avant-garage) group. The first one's been my favorite for a long time; in fact, I have it on vinyl, having bought it before the reissue rush of the late 90s. People say Dub Housing is the better of the two, but I disagree.
