^ Ah, Massive Attack. Heard that album once, good but I don't remember being particularly impressed by it.

Exactly, that's what drew me to it...it's definitely an incredibly unique album.

Comus is so amazing....and I even love the 2nd album which most people despise.

Such a charming album

I'm psyched for more Comus. Hopefully they will tone down the whole rape-in-the-forest thing though.

My daily rhythm is wondrously strange right now. Fell asleep around 7 last evening, woke up around 2 this morning. Now I'm sipping some red wine (Italian, naturally) and studying for a seminar

I just listened to it on videos posted on Youtube. Too bad it's not portable. |
There are programs/websites that can rip music/video from youtube. I don't know if they are illegal though. I guess it is similar to recording movies on tv or songs from the radio.

My favorite track on "Piper" would have to be Interstellar Overdrive. When I first heard it, I didn't like it (this was before I discovered Prog,) but now I realize it's brilliance. I guess it's not very complex though, considering that it's actually just one riff with a lot of organ texture for 10 minutes, but it sounds epic anyways. |
You just summed up why almost all Pink Floyd bores me.
