* HilariousInHindsight: Andrew Eldritch has said that the "Mother Russia" part of "Dominion" was a call for the West to give up control of ''all'' of Berlin to the Soviets, as in his words: "because in reality they already control the city. It's only stupid to pretend otherwise". Guess what happened [[UsefulNotes/BerlinWall two years later?]]

** Their indie period might have the most vicious split of all. Those who zealously adhere to this period levy accusations of selling out at the band, while others disdain the raw, at times amateurish sound of recordings from this time. It doesn't help that both the band's guitarist at the time, Ben Gunn, and legendary tastemaking DJ Creator/JohnPeel, a notable early supporter of the band, both expressed their distaste with the band's direction on F&L&A and later releases.

** "First and Last and Always". The gothic old guard tend to gravitate towards this album, seeing it as the only "real" Main/GothRock album they produced, and other fans despise the notable influence of Wayne Hussey on the record.
** "Floodland" is eschewed by a number of fans due to the heavier presence of synthesizers (bordering on DarkWave), its bombastic style and lush production, whereas its defenders often cite the exact same reasons.
** "Vision Thing" catches the most flak of their three albums, with its Main/HardRock stylings departing from the gothic sensibilities of the first two, while other fans view it as more faithful to Andrew's view of the band as a non-goth, purely rock outfit.
