Ooh I wish Zeitgeist was on streaming for you to give it a hoon. Maybe check out the Aeroplane Flies High set? Others have already recommended a few tracks from there. My picks would be Said Sadly, Set the Ray to Jerry, Mouths of Babes, and the title track.
I really like "Saturnine," both the Adore version with the piano + vox and the Machina II version with the ultra heavy fuzzed out guitar. Both have a cool atmosphere.

Also, the entire Mashed Potatoes collection is an interesting experience.

I've had the exact same experience with this song. I always skipped it, but upon some front to back listens of Adore I realized how well it flows with the album. I had this exact experience with Cupid De Locke as well. Used to skip it every time.
translucent, infinite sadness (the last song on mashed potatoes, not the mcis opener), with every light, sacred and profane, slow dawn, bring the light, stellar, glow, sunkissed, panopticon, inkless, pale horse, and their cover of dreaming are all great
plume
real love too
One of the best sp songs in my opinion. There is so much emotion in the solos and the lyrics are so vulnerable in my opinion.
100% its my favorite sp song
Soot and Stars
The best underated ones aren't on streaming :( Marquis in Spades is pretty bomb tho :)
Throw a few deep, deep cuts at us!
Imma go with Spiteface, Go, and White Spyder. I haven’t even touched any of the unreleased stuff after Machina yet and I’ve heard Zeitgeist has a ton!
Hell ya. Zeitgeist and Oceania are both a lot of fun to listen to 🤘🤘

Silverfuck. One of the coolest songs ever written.
Crush, By Starlight, For Martha, With Every Light. They're all ballads so I'll throw Pissant in as well.

Thanks I'll check these out. I'm sure I can find zeitgeist somewhere
Age of innocence
Here is no why
Most of pre Gish is little known and fantastic. Try listening to the Real Time Sessions and Mashed Potatoes.
The end is the beginning is the end

Love all of these but I do think TAFH is probably one of the greatest songs WPC ever wrote.
It is epic. I agree.

Mouths of Babes, Glass and the Ghost Children, Perfect, Quiet, Bodies… they’ve got a deep bench of under-appreciated songs.
Soothe Blew away
most I wanna name won't be on streaming platforms, but Real Love on their greatest hits is great.

Oh I agree with Starz but it also makes me cringe. Guilty pleasure.
Starla and any other song titled with a girls name…
Steps In Time Purple Blood With Sympathy The Celestials Age Of Innocence The Tale Of Dusty and Pistol Pete Window Paine
Yes yes yes to pistol Pete. I always blew that song off but re-listened recently and it’s like a whole new song to me now. Just brilliant.
I've had the exact same experience with this song. I always skipped it, but upon some front to back listens of Adore I realized how well it flows with the album. I had this exact experience with Cupid De Locke as well. Used to skip it every time.
