Elan Vital was a decent album

Good Health was stellar. The New Romance was good, but considerably lessened in quality from Good Health and Elan Vital, while still a solid album, was the weakest of the three.

Great band though. Shame they broke up last year.

Didn't know they broke up, they are really good, though they don't really stand the test of time. I listened to them a lot about 3-4 years ago but listening them today isn't quite the same.

:-( I didn't know they broke up either
The only thing I liked on The New Romance was All Medicated Geniuses

The New Romance was a really great cd for me, and it was definitely a new sound for me to start listening to.

Bump? The New Romance is far and away their best record. Not even debateable.

Really like this band, I personally think that Good Health is their best effort but enjoy all their work.

This is about where I stand. Great Band, New Romance is a wonderful CD.

Good band. Good Health/New Romance were my favorites. Got lucky to see them a few times over the years, always fun.

i think good health was amazing.....since the break up aren't the members of pretty girls in jaguar love with johnny whitney of the blood brothers?

Good Health, by my estimation, is superior to the subsequent two.

The New Romance is probably my personal favorite. Good Health is right up there. Loved this band. So glad I got to see them a few times before they hung it up. Good people.

Every thread needs a "that guy's too cool for you, assclowns" comment. Quota met!

...I still like you Micah. That's not true. Or is it?!

Just doing my job Todd and I'm still a fan of you as well so no harm done.

In retrospect, I take that comment back. While I still like The New Romance the most, I can understand the love for Good Health. I just feel that there's more variation on the following record that puts it ahead.

Jesus Christ this is an old post but my comp crashed and had to rip all my music over again on this new one. Was able to find my copies of TNR/Elan Vital but not Good Health and it's driving me nuts. If you could up this album in a decent bit rate for me, I'd greatly appreciate it. Everything I've found online is a shitty ass 192 kbps version. /longwindedpost

Anyways, miss this band immensely. Jamming out to some Nocturnal House.

The first two tracks on Good Health are amazing, never get old. The rest are nice, but they definitely don't touch the openers.

I upload everything at 128kbps, I'm not a huge audiophile or w/e. I'd rather have enough space on my ancient iPod for all my songs, lol. Can I rip at the quality you want using iTunes? I'd be happy to help if you haven't gotten this yet (I haven't been to AP in a while so you probably found it :p).

Hahaha....actually, everything I've found is 128kpbs and they sound like really shitty rips of some reason. If you could, 256-320 quality would be great when you have some free time to fuck around. Would be greatly appreciated! And it's good to see ya around man. I swear, I hardly ever see any of the old school music forum posters around anymore (probably cause I don't get on here as much as I used to but any time I'am, I have no idea who anyone is. )

Oh, okay does something like this work? I haven't messed with this at all I just want to make sure I do it how you want it.

Not even "The New Romance"? I probably love that album equally to Good Health.

yep. it's been a while since i've really given it a try, but i think i've sat down with the two other albums several times and nothing ever clicked for me.
