The Shred Room II (with extra youth)

Just get the box set.  Ah yes. I have: The debut 1001 Degrees Centigrade Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandoh Nah, I have three albums and the box set will mean duplicates and I hate having duplicates and I never sell CDs.  Never! Then definitely get the next two at least. I don't listen to Attahk or Udu Wudu as much as other ones, I should though. I have this thing called a hard drive and it sits in my laptop.  It has Magma's whole discography (well, official albums) on it (minus Merci), so I can listen to their albums at any time.  I also have Theusz Hamtaahk Trilogie and some bootlegs. It's just I would like them on CD eventually.

I know - and I'm telling you what CDs to get next!

Magma's debut is probably the one I listen to the least. Merci doesn't count because it doesn't exist.

Attahk was the one that took the longest to grow on me. Although I think The Last Seven Minutes is one of Magma's best songs now.

I know why I keep getting that ending to M.D.K. mixed up... 'cause on the vinyl version of Retrospektiw I-II, the tracks are swapped and I keep thinking of the album that way even though I've never played it that way.

Magma are the best band ever... after VdGG, Soft Machine, Robert Wyatt (not a band, I realise), Henry Cow, Univers Zéro, Present, Shub-Niggurath and Koenjihyakkei.

No so.

How can an album be genius?  It's not an entity.

You mean:

Captain Beefheart is a genius and his great creation is Trout Mask Replica.

Sorry June....this really ends up being the RIO room at times.

Well, a musical based on the Holy Grail.   I love that film, a musical must be a lot of fun. My 6 years old niece had been learning the Camelot song from watching the Lego version on youtube... Cutest thing ever.

It was hysterical, highly entertaining.  Which was good, because seeing stuff on Broadway ain't cheap.

Nah, Rush pwn them all.

Rush pwn Henry Cow?

Not so sure...
