Other Nick is right, you know.  The Art Objects album is brilliant.  
There's also a bit of muddied water, what with "Showing Off To Impress The 
Girls" being on Bagpipe Music AND Weird Shit.
I think Gerard has come round to it a bit - for a long time he thought it 
was rubbish, but the last time I asked him about it he admitted that there 
are some great tunes on there.  One of the members of the Aeroplanes had 
come up to him and sung the bass lune from "Dumbness" which made him 
realise how unforgettable it is.
