First few days of summer vacation doing nearly absolutely nothing. It's great. I suppose I better enjoy this while I still can.

I think it was 50-250, anything you like. I did a top 150 and had a lot of fun doing it. I'm already waiting for the next round of albums or songs, so I'll get a good excuse to spend days listing stuff Tongue

It was anywhere from 50 to 250. My list was way too hard; I just did 50, and I definitely wasn't completely content with it at all... but I slapped it together quickly because I didn't want to spend hours on it.

Next year I'll make it better.

My #1 favourite album, or #2 sometimes as in the last Ultimate Album List thingy where I put Mezmerize by SoaD before it. I believe it may have a boosting effect on an already existing depression, though. 


which will be coming soon btw

I was just thinking about that. Can't wait to see the results, since I was actually able to participate this time.

I want to wake up, not having blood spurting from my ears.  Tongue


You mean something like this would make that happen? Tongue

That's your favorite album? I don't even remember what it sounds like; I'll have to give it another spin.
Yeah, that one indeed. A massive(ly), beautiful album. The last two tracks both made it to my top 15 in the Song List, if I remember right. The closing track was number three, I'm pretty sure of that. I've heard it live three times (and seen a filmed live recording in a movie theatre once) and been totally, completely, absolutely blown away every time. That's an insanely good live song.

I remember some of you talking about writing embarrassing fanboy reviews of your favourite albums, perhaps I should never do one about ( ). Tongue


Yeah, I have at least two fanboy reviews that I probably shouldn't have written, but oh well. LOL

Okay. Logos is one of my fav TD albums, hands down. I can easily say that already. Vic, I can't thank you enough for this recommendation. Hug


I just knew it would be an instant hit. Wink

Funny  Interesting you don't like Encore quite up to the superlative, that one and Poland usually top Logos. But they're the most solid lives, anyway.

Don't forget Quichotte. It fully exploits Tangram, and is qualitatively noisy, but it's (very) good stuff.


Encore, Poland, and Quichotte are all extremely fantastic as well. I have no clue how I'd rank them just yet. I need to hear Poland again.

I listened to Quichotte right after Tangram, and man... TD are SUCH an awesome live band. I'd almost say I prefer Quichotte.

Very.  More coffee is in order.

And I need something very energetic to listen to.


Ozric Tentacles ought to do it. Particularly if you have Spirals in Hyperspace or Waterfall Cities.

Magma (more intense Magma, not earlier Magma), Dream Theater, Meshuggah, Koenjihyakkei, and The Mars Volta are alternatives.
