Not a full prog Christmas list, but every year my parents ask me to make a small list of albums I'd like. Here's what I'll (probably) be getting in terms of music.

OSI - Office Of Strategic Influence
Peach - Giving Birth To A Stone
On The Virg - Serious Young Insects
Morbid Angel - Domination
Rosetta - A Determinism of Morality

The Block
