My thoughts exactly; though I like "Pawn Hearts" more than "H to He," I am also shocked that "Islands" is winning.  I assumed that "Islands" was the ugly duckling of the KC catalog, but clearly there are a large number of people who enjoy it.  I suppose I'll have to give it another listen to see what I'm missing. Confused

H to He is my favorite VdGG as well, especially with the addition of Squid 1/Squid 2/Octopus.

They're both one of the weaker albums of both bands, but H to He.

This may be my first time voting for VdGG, but that album is my favorite of theirs.  "There's a house with no door" is wow.

I have to say Islands, because it seems much more well composed.

Islands must be the album name that fits the better with the music. What a wonderful trip of music and atmosphere

It's pretty close, but Islands gets the vote.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

I adore both but prefer H to He. 


In my poll "4bands,8pairs" the pair of these albums didn't get any vote. 
That's why I've created this poll - to see what you think about these works.
