My album of the week this week is Music from the Bilston House by Manning. An eclectic mix of Prog, Symphonic, Jazz influences and even a bit of Tull in places.

For me, Y by The Pop Group. Bizarre but amazing. Recommended to RIO fans.

Would you like to watch TV, or get between the sheets, or contemplate the silent freeway, would you like something to eat?

Univers Zero - Heresie (RIO, Chamber Rock, 1979)
Having a kick on UZ lately, I've played this album everyday since the beginning of this week. This is one of the darkest and most frightening albums ever made, but it's also incredibly cohesive and well put together. Brilliant musicianship and nerveshaking melodies makes this one of my favorite RIO albums. I just love playing it in the dark!

I just got it in the mail on wednesday, and i've been playing it only twice since then.
After just 5 seconds, i was stuck. "Hey, this sounds like caravan, but more playful and experimental" was my first thought.
Excellent Canterbury album! if you like Caravan, Egg and the likes, you will love this!

I support this choice! I want this to be my Album of the Week as well.
Darnit Assaf! You're an adventurous man. Seriously, you seem to find all kinds of great music that i probably never would have discovered on my own. Thanks! |

I'd like to add two more albums to the one I mentioned above:
Sculptured - Embodiment which will be released next month (I have a promo release, NOT an illegal download). See my thread dedicated to that album and also these - http://www.myspace.com/matrixmetal
The second album is Draw Breath by The Nels Cline Singers

Another album to add to the list:
Tr-Ond & The Suburban Savages - s/t
Taken from their myspace:
Tr-Ond (from PANZERPAPPA) made tunes, and cooked coffee.Thomas (from THE SAMUEL JACKSON 5 and NOW'VE GOT MEMBERS) drank the coffee, and tweaked and turned the tunes inside out. The rest of the savages (Anders from PANZERPAPPA and the unknown Hans Petter) were whipped into shape (with feathers). Foreign cooks (Truls from TULS AND THE TREES and Sissyfus from NOW'VE GOT MEMEBERS) were allowed into the kitchen, to add their delicious spices and good skills to the final product.
The debut album "tr-Ond and The Suburban is out now... It's distributed by www.musikkoperatorene.no, so you should be able to order it from all over the world by contacting [email protected]  |

In all honesty, I got tired of posting in the "What's in your CD player...." thread. It got monotonous and I don't think that posts were really noticeable. I'll just post my albums of the week, it seems much more useful.
This week:
Adagio - Underworld
 Ahhh!! AWESOME Neo Classical Prog Power Metal. Similar to Symphony X but not a copy, these guys have nothing to envy to SX!!! I love the mood of the album. Very neo classical and very recommended!
