I vaguely recall having seen the name "Comus" somewhere in a musical context, but I think this is the first time I've actually encountered them in any sort of meaningful way. They sound sort of like what Fairport Convention, Slapp Happy and the Residents might have come up with if they'd all gotten together for a collab. I'm tempted to say it's fascinating, but it's also a little disturbing...

Apparently they're on the Nurse With Wound list too, and indeed this album is #39 on the Greatest Nurse With Wounds (sic) List Albums chart by BEA member PatrickD, which appears to be the only chart here based on that list. I might add that if PatrickD actually listened to all those albums, well, that's pretty impressive. If he owns even half of them, even more so!
