Part Two of a hopefully longer series of polls to highlight some excellent albums to play around the Christmas (or your religious or secular holiday of choice) time of year.
Sadly, space limits came into play on this one. Just to be complete...the album in question here is Shub Niggurath's Les Morts Von Vite. (The last track name was also truncated but I think you all get the jist of that one.)
This album is surely to make you feel warm and cozy on those long winter nights. Some say that this album will give you nightmares and that if played around members of your family you may just be removed from the will, but those in the know will recognize the greatness of this album and how no Christmas party would be complete without a faithful playing of Les Morts Von Vite.
So which is your favorite track? For me its a close call between Incipit Tragaedia, Yog Sothoth, and La Ballade De Lenore. But, at the end of the day, Yog Sothoth will take the crown. ------------- Dig me...But don't...Bury me I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect. |

If it was "Yog-Sothoth" off S-N's self-titled album, that would get my vote. Still, I also love Les Morts and will give it to "Incipit Tragaedia". ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Duos for fave acts |

It's flat out fabulous from start to finish, but I think Yog-Sothoth is the high point of an amazing album. ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...' Robert Wyatt, Gloria Gloom |
