They released a great album about 10 years ago entitled "Still Struck in Your Throat", I think it rivals their best stuff from 30 years ago. I remember going to shows 30 years ago and not seeing very many people of color in the audience. While talking to one black dude in the crowd he thought Angelo was "playing the fool" with his stage antics, maybe that's the reason they stayed away? I thought Angelo was way cool but I'm a screwed up white boy. Wish the band all the best.
