   Hybris is a totally different album to Epilog - having been absolutely blown away by Hybris i bought Epilog, but missed half the cd by falling asleep - it's booooring!

buy Hybris - no prog collection is complete without it!

	Hmm.... maybe you shold try Hybris instead? I generally prefer that to Epilog, and I personally find it a slightly better album. Also, it does contain some vocals, which might make it more interesting than Epilog. Or maybe Änglagård just isn't your cup of tea

	Thank you. I thought I was the only person in the prog world who doesn't get the appeal of that band. Prepare for some invective, though.

	I simply can not "get into" Anglagard-Epilog ... and that makes me sad because I feel like I've been left out of all the fun. After reading many rave reviews about Anglagard, I was looking forward to getting one of their albums. Finally, a couple months ago, I got a copy of Epilog and was sooooo excited to check it out. Even though I enjoy the band's influences and can recognize their ablities, there is something that just doesn't work for me -- despite numerous listens. Actually, it kinda makes me feel like I'm listening to instrumental backing tracks to Wind & Wuthering-era Genesis outtakes ... or something like that. Not that THAT is altogether bad -- It's just unfulfilling. Darnit ! Sorry ... I just felt the need to share this.
