===The list===
*Firstly, the first paragraph of the lead needs expanding, with at least another sentence. Maybe "It was the Xth release the band had produced" and/or "recorded in X Studio" (which would need to be added to the body if you were to mention it).
**
*Numerous critics complained about its poor — "numerous" seems superflous here, and prime for a  tag.
**
*In a 1996 interview, lead singer Bernard Fanning described Parables for Wooden Ears as "big and presumptuous", and stated that it had "a pretty massive sort of sound" — reference quotes.
*The third and fourth sentences of the history section is better suited in the "Release and response" section, in my opinion.
**
*I'd combine the last two paragraphs of the "History" section and stick it nearer to the top.
**
*However, due to the "lack of an obvious single", the album would sell poorly, despite the effort put into production — "sold poorly" (past tense)?
**
*The first paragraph of "Release and response" should probably be in the "History" section.
**No, that's what the "release" part of the header refers too ;)
*The two mid-sentence references for John Encarnacao's comments aren't needed as they are at the end of the sentence as well, and the subject of the sentence doesn't change.
**
*Is it possible to link to Juice and Sputnikmusic?
**Juice (magazine) is German (not the one discussed here), Sputnikmusic has a deletion log
*noting "Bridle You" and "Father's Pyramid" as examples — "specific examples"?
**
*The highlight, according to Bishop, was — "The highlight of the album for Bishop", to reduce run-on?
**
*No music sample? This could be perfect in the "Release and response" section where individual songs are discussed (the riffs, etc.).
**I've only heard one song on the album - "Tail" - and I only have that on the Dream Days DVD...I might go and rip some audio out of it, but the quality would suck and it would be "original".
***. I finally got off my behind and made a sample ogg of it. --lincalinca 11:31, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
