The third installment in the Random Album Clash series is here! As usual, on a Wednesday. This time I decided to pick a year from another great decade that gets to be featured for the first time - the 80s!
Pick your favorite album from the ones listed below, fellow forum users.

I don't vote for Marillion very often, but this time they deserve it.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Rush. Power Windows is one of my all-time faves. The Jewel and The Wake are awesome, too. Many fine choices in this poll.

Misplaced Childhood.

No contest whatsoever.
I use they/them pronouns (feel free to ask me about this!)

Check out my music on my bandcamp!

A very easy choice for me, Kate Bush’s Hounds of Love. I love that bushy hound.

It's nice to see a poll - other than my own - where I know at least half of the albums in the poll, and as for my vote, It's in the trees, It's coming..... Smile

Some interesting lp's there...but I am a big fan of all the earlier Dead Can Dance albums so Spleen it is.

If the Marillion wasn't there I would easily vote for the Kate Bush.

The second 'act' of Misplaced Childhood is brilliant but I think Kate Bush nailed the pop and prog mix perfectly so I voted for that. Seems strange for me not to vote for IQ - The Wake which is very important to me but not aged so well as a recording. The Wake Live is much better imo.

For a brief moment there, I hoped Tears for Fears might be on ProgArchives, but sadly not, although I'm not disappointed that Phil Collins isn't here on PA. Smile
