Alright. Thanks, Scott!

Considers sending CD player to repair shop.  It must be broken.  There is no way the melodic vocals of the usual Shred Room fare could sound like cookie monster.  It must need repair.

Awww, poor ol' Fandanglist. Cry  I'd have thought prog metal would have offered more, uh, fertile territory than most subgenres, though.  Perhaps I'm wrong. Ermm

It's alright, I've given it a good kick and we're now listening to a bit of Present.  Yes, it's RIO but at least there are no 'vomiting walrus' vocals... Dead LOL

I'm not familiar with Present but either way, I'm sure that it is better than listening to a vomiting walrus. LOL

I guess vomiting walrus is one notch higher than cookie monster, but neither adequately describe the wonderfully sonorous and moving growling of Mr Åkerfeldt, which would be more readily likened to the rumbling roar of a TVR Tuscan as it motors effortlessly through the winding switch-backs on a treacherous Alpine pass, the throaty growl echoing between the glacial mountain peaks as if it had awakened the slumbering mountains themselves; Or to the deep orotund snore of a hibernating grizzly bear having an exceptionally bad dream, (after eating a particularly ripe Bree just before bedtime), about the eldritch preternatural phantasms that inhabit the mountain caves and prey on dozing ursine mammals.

LOL...you have me at a loss Dean...a loss to know where you think them up from, and indeed whether you are an Opeth fan or not...Ermm

Oh Lor', has the bear eaten that woman off 'Desperate Housewives'?! Shocked LOL

I have to say, it is a rare pleasure to read a sentence containing the words 'eldritch' and 'ursine'.  Mmmm, vocabulary.... Embarrassed Tongue

I must say that I really love Enchant's instrumental Progtology from Tug of War.  It is definitely my kind of instrumental.
 
Here is a link to the video from their Live At Last DVD for the uninitiated into Enchant.

Oh, no, that would be crazy.  Thankfully we're not dressing the same and I decided on the print dress and stiletto heels today.
