'The Raincoats'
1979

Their groundbreaking debut, winningly dissonant, heart-breakingly honest, cheekily disregarding everything 'girls' were supposed to do
in bands up to that point, but purely expressive of the spirit of the times.

  'Odyshape'
1981

The sound of both the band and the song-writing hitting their stride, with the confidence to make more demands of their listeners, complex on both a musical and emotional level.

  'Moving'
1984

Exploratory and free-wheeling, playful but tense, perhaps this last album before disbanding in the mid-80's went beyond their audience's ability to keep up with the many directions the individual members were moving in.

  'Looking in the Shadows'
1996

Triumphant but tremulous reunion after being championed by Kurt Cobain and others, proving how important they'd been all along, but still relevant to current musical developments.
