Remote Luxury, Heyday, and Starfish are all good older (80s) albums.
After Everything, Forget Yourself, Uninvited, and Untitled are all good newer (00s) albums.

I never did like anything they were putting out in the 90s... I don't think they did either. It was a painful transition for them between their older, poppier sound and what they're doing now, which is substantially different.

If you need lyrics, this is the site for 'em: http://homepage.mac.com/fipster/church/albums/church-albums.html

EDIT: And no, it's not a religious band. I'm pretty certain none of them are even Christians.
