"Josef K were The Sound of Young Scotland, together with Orange Juice, whose guitars were also radiant and brittle, whose rhythms were also scrubbed and blunt, whose vocals were also proud and serious, but who sounded like another group entirely" (Paul Morley); "Josef K was about the heroic Outsider suavely surfing across the fraught surface of their albino funk fracas. Haig sounds high on anxiety, finding an odd, giddy euphoria in doubt." (Simon Reynolds) "A blueprint for a new kind of art pop" (The Wire)"Nervy, echoing, ecstatic - like a panic attack in a golden underpass" (Mojo)1 Romance2 Radio Drill Time3 It's Kinda Funny4 Sorry for Laughing5 Chance Meeting6 The Missionary7 Heaven Sent8 Heart of Song9 Revelation10 Crazy to Exist11 Pictures (Of Cindy)12 Final Request13 Pictures14 No Glory15 Endless Soul16 Applebush17 One Angle18 Second Angle19 Radio Drill Time (Demo)20 Chance Meeting (Original)
