As promised, here's the second, final, and posthumous record from Choir Invisible, recorded in 1982, but not released until 1984. It's far more bright and synthy then their debut record. I tend to prefer it, but it depends on your take on buzzing synths vs. brooding guitars. Opposite sides of a similar coin, if you will.
Let's cut to the chase, shall we?

As I recall, Shakespeare uses the expression 'choir invisible' as a poetic term for the dead, imagining them as a sort of heavenly choir. But then your literate readers already knew that, right?
--Daniel
Iam literate, but never got much into Shakespeare. Somehow, the end of this quote was condescending. So, anti-kudos to you.
Usually I prefer synthesizers over guitars, but in this case I don't. Their first album is much more interesting to me, the songs are more intelligently written, have more surprises. I only kept "Devoted To A Memory". Anyway, thank you for offering!!
