They don't have woman vocals like Rush.

They're mostly instrumental. Some albums have vocals... like Cyclone, Tyger, and the La Divina trilogy. I think there are some other sparse vocal moments.


They're rarely vocal, yes. Cyclone was heavily controversial because of this, but every TD connoisseur actually agrees that the album kicks ass, and the lamentation over under 10 minutes of vocalisation is aberant, once Madrigal Meridian starts.

La Divina Commedia is very well-conceived too, vocal-instrumentally. Perhaps only Paradiso is a bit lackluster (in everything, but vocals more than ever).


Alpha Centauri has voices on it.


Ah, yes, that's right, but it was the krautrock stoned type of chanting anyone could accept. Cyclone featured typical vocals, with someone singing on the band's sequences and stuff.

Some would say that even Atem had vocals, with all that growling in the tiny last piece, Wahn . Wink

Reminds me of Porcupine Tree in a way... *ducks*


Still not hearing the PT, and I've heard this stuff at least 50 times.

They are, yes. Don't remember who added them, although the last bio update for BtBaM was done by me.

James I finally bought Baldur's Gate 2.


They still sell it? Shocked

Hopefully it's the DVD version.

I don't officially own it.  I own some of the CDs.  Some have broken.
It wasn't hard to find.

To be honest I didn't like The Anatomy Of much. I much prefer their original material to their covers.

Oh wait... The Anatomy Of has covers of King Crimson and Pink Floyd.  Oh and Queen, apparently. Confused
