Mine is probably Sgt Rock, though I will be the first to admit I have not entirely absorbed their back catalogue yet.

I always liked Red Brick Dream...written about Swindon.

To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester

We travel over England
And one day Europe too

Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

I have a love of the skylarking album.  Some great stuff on their including the lovely bucolic englishness of Grass, Dear god, Dying and the man who sailed around his soul.  The last of those I seem to remember being surprised to see on the tube with a little film done at portmeirion.  Very nice.  Wish they'd come back.  Swindons finest.  Even better than Billie.

English Settlement is a great album-but Red Brick Dream is their best song(see below)

XTC were okay, but they were no Dukes of Stratosphear
