Great album.

The best place to start would be Donnie Darko.

I've still only heard Killing Moon. And it's still one of the best songs I've heard. I really need to hear the rest of this album.

Before Cellardoor comes in : great album, "The Killing Moon" is to die for. The rest ranges from very good to just brilliant. A must-listen, and their best LP by quite a bit.

Very good album. Like Nocturnal Me. However, Thorn of Crowns nearly ruins the album.

Héhé, I'm getting pretty predictable...
So, yes "The Killing Moon"...
But "Nocturnal Me" is probably just as good.

The Killing Moon is beautiful.
This is a really good album  I would recommend it as a place to start.

I don't agree with the "by quite a bit" comment. It's got their most famous song, but Echo fans will debate this versus Heaven Up Here or Crocodiles all day long. I might pick this as their best but it isn't as if it is far and away better than anything else they ever did.
