2: Remedy Lane by Pain of Salvation
3: The Mantle by Agalloch
4: Mei by Echolyn
5: Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence by Dream Theater
6: El Cielo by Dredg
7: Symbiosis by Hidria Spacefolk
8: Hold Your Horse Is by Hella
9: Up by Peter Gabriel
10: Snow by Spock’s Beard
I use they/them pronouns (feel free to ask me about this!)

Check out my music on my bandcamp!

Ay! 2003 is already up and running but I'm stuck in 2002.

Art Zoyd - Metropolis
Sigur Ros - ()
Porcupine Tree - In Absentia
Art Zoyd & Musiques Novelles - Experiences de Vol 1-2-3
Kimmo Pohjonen - Cluster
Tori Amos - Scarlett's Walk
Cancer Conspiracy - The Audio Medium
5uu's - Abandonship
Camel - A Nod and a Wink
Legendary Pink Dots - Synesthesia

For some reason I haven't heard the Univers Zero and GY!BE albums of that year. I need to repair that. Echolyn just about didn't make the list, and I also like Steve Hackett's 2002 live album.

That may be so, but another special date is coming up shortly too: 22/02/2022, which is also a palindrome.  Smile

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword
