 Topic: Do you like the "wrong" album?
Posted: May 08 2006 at 21:37 |

I REALLY like all the Pink Floyd albums from A Saucerful Of Secrets to Obscured by Clouds (especially Ummagumma), except for Meddle, one of my least favorite albums. When Waters took over, everything got too... complain-ey.

As for Tool, I like Undertow just as much as Aenima and Lateralus (I think I like 10,000 Days better than all of them, though  )
The Power and the Glory is my favorite GG album, which is unusual... I think

Others that I would include would be...
Flower Kings - Adam and Eve
Borknagar - Debut and Quintessence
Gentle Giant - Octopus (I still haven't gotten into In A Glass House yet, and i've had it for quite a while)
Opeth - Deliverance
Pain of Salvation - BE

Haven't read through the whole thread, this has probably been mentioned already.
I love Tormato; On The Silent Wings Of Freedom is reason enough to get it, my favorite Yes song.

In my circle of friends i am the one who listens to the most unconventional music..
But I totally love the british Pop Band "The Coral"
Most Of my friends say they are far to poppy and especially i with my progressive taste shouldn´t like them  |

My most clearcut cases are:
Kansas, I always find myself enjoying and playing more often "Monolith" and "Audiovisions" than any of their previous records and they aren't very prog compared to the early 70's records.
Genesis, I certainly like "Calling All Stations" more than any post Invisible Touch records, though in the 70's output my tastes are pretty much the norm.
Steve Hackett, I like "Please don't touch" more than even "Spectral Mornings" and "Voyage of the Acolyte".
With Mars Volta there's no doubt "Deloused" is the best album, BTW Mr. Steve Hackett mentioned them as a good current group when we met him in Mexico City, though I already knew them and enjoyed them.
Greetings

I find myself pretty much liking anything a group that I am interested in, does/did. It is all just different stages.

No one knows what the purpose of it originally was or if it had a purpose at all. Personally I think it was a pure artistic creation from the beginning.

I kind of like "Jet Lag". But I hate that Lanzetti guy. Jet Lag has some very nice jazzy cuts, and I'm ok with bands changing tremendously. I just can't stand that Gabriel impersonator, but I steel think that the sound of PFM there is... interesting.

The thing is, I don't prefer it as a post-Waters album. I prefer it as a 1967-1995 Floyd album...

Yep Dream Theaters Falling Into Infinity maybe the "wrong" one but I really like it,
"Frances The Mute" is a bit of a mess, too much sound effects, and its there one everyone generally likes...

I've read all the replies...
Guys, you're absolutely RIGHT!
Rush - Power Windows (my favourite Rush album)
Dream Theater - Falling Into Infinity (I have always loved this album! "Lines In The Sand" is a great song with an awesome solo.)
Also, I suppose "De-Loused" is better album than "Frances The Mute". I think, the latest Mars Volta album is a complete mess!
