There was an earlier poll asking for a ranking of all Magma albums we had, and I mentioned that it feels like something of a random ordering because they are all at high standard and I can't really come up with an order that wouldn't be different on the next day. I tend to honour MDK (also in the recent France poll), but here I'll go for Köhntarkösz, the very strong and worthy successor. I love the Jannick Top era most.

Although I very much like all five or six first albums, I'll vote for the debut. Afterwards, it remained high quality, but those first albums are enough for me...

MDK. Attahk and 1001° aren't far behind that.

It pains me to vote for what I think will eventually the winner, but I have to go with MDK.  I'd rather have given some love to a more obscure album, but I just can't deny the power of the original MDK.  If it had been an option, I could have happily voted for Theusz Hamtaahk aka Trilogie au Trianon, since I think that has the best rendition of MDK on record.  Philippe Bussonnet on bass - WOWZERS! 

I'd flown to Paris from NYC to attend the Trianon shows, and was there for all 3 nights.  On the 1st night, the guy sitting next to me had flown up from Santiago Chile just for the Trianon shows, so I wasn't the only nutcase obsessive in the crowd.  The guys sitting in front of us had driven over from Germany, and I heard a lot of English with various UK accents, so it was a really international affair.  It wasn't the 1st time that I saw Magma.  The year before, I'd flown over from New York to see them in Verviers, Belgium.  Nor was it the last time, since I later saw them twice in New York City.

They are best watched live; I highly recommend this video:


There is no studio version of "Theusz Hamtaahk", by the way.

The debut.
 
No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Choose your favourite Magma studio album. I had to slightly alter some album titles; the system could not handle "ẁ" respectively "Ẁ" in "Mëkanïk Dëstruktïẁ Kommandöh" and "Ẁurdah Ïtah" and "ǧ" and "ƶ" in "Šlaǧ Tanƶ".
