Let    Heart     Rule 
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Why do I get the feeling that none of those five albums would appeal to me? I feel it more likely they would appal me. Tongue

I think you'd given them a couple of minutes (tops) each, and rate them all with a
Yes, two minutes sounds more than long enough for me for a 1-star rated album, especially in the case of Rap (with a capital "C") and the outer limits of Extreme Metal. Tongue

The Cure - Disintegration

LOL  It wouldn't suprise me, but I think it's a good way to tell about own tastes which I also think is good to do.

By the way, Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe won that 1989 prog poll easily with 11 votes, so no surprise there, although Tears for Fears picked up a very respectable five votes too. Thumbs Up

Not the best year in music that's for sure, but for a former* metalhead this is where it was at:

Sepultura - Beneath the Remains
Bolt Thrower - Realm of Chaos
Morbid Angel - Altars of Madness
Annihilator - Alice in Hell
Coroner - No More Color
Kreator - Extreme Aggression
Obituary - Slowly We Rot
Voivod - Nothingface
Pestilence - Consuming Impulse
Carcass - Symphonies of Sickness

*I haven't stopped liking these, but I don't really sit at home and listen to Slowly We Rot anymore:)

That's just one of nine albums in this poll I wouldn't want to repeat. Wink

I've noticed while on RYM, it's a very popular and high-rated album. Wink

What about Kate Bush? Shocked

The Sensual World is alright. Good even. But a little too mature or polished and not eccentric enough for me to be among my go-to Kate Bush albums. And it was never part of my youth, like those other three albums were. Aerial is a much better "background music"-album imo (I prefer 50 Words For Snow over this as well).
