I've been listening to this band quite a lot lately, two very good albums but I'm going to vote for the debut, Kezia, as its just got that edge that I thinks missing from Fortress.

Considering that I just reviewed the albums I might as well make my voice heard.

Fortress is one of my top 25 albums of the 2000's, so definitely it.

Another vote for Fortress, although The Divine Suicide Of K is the best track they've recorded by miles imo. Shame Kezia isn't as consistent.

haven't heard the first, so Fortress it is, one of the best X-Tech discs ever

I feel that while Fortress is a more developed album for the band, it isn't as interesting or as powerful as Kezia, which I'll vote for despite having slightly worse production. It's just more varied, yet consistent and entertaining.

Kezia just has a bit more of an emotional quality to it that isn't present on much of Fortress. Both are great records though.
