Is that on CD or vinyl? Because I thought the vinyl goes for about $300.

It's all CDs except Ange. So far I've listened to Comus and Santana, both seemed pretty great, especially Comus.

There are a lot of things that make me feel righteous anger, but the fact that everybody's brain shuts off when they hear the word pedophile drives me insane.



It almost pisses me off as much as the crime itself.

Comus is epic win.  Steal it off your missus and pretend she never bought it in the first place. Wink

And is it just me that feels ever so slightly underwhelmed by Emehntehtt-Re?

I love the album to bits but I seem to switch off slightly on Part IV.

Part II is awesome though.

I just feel the album never reaches a climax.  Part II is, as I said, excellent and almost climatic but I expected a slight return to that epicness later on.  I love the darkness of the later parts though and the ending is cool when Ementehtt-Re wakes up from his tomb.

Hmm, I'm weird.  I like women with white hair.  I don't mean old ladies, of course.  I mean girls in their 20s.  Yet you never see girls with white hair.

Boo!

JAMES, YOUR INBOX IS FULL.

And you're right about Part IV, it is the weakest moment.

Climax however happens in Part III. I think it's a regular climax, just like, for instance, in M.D.K., almost every piece builds up its own particular climax.

Seeing them live though was far more epic.  The keyboardist had a nice Fender Rhodes solo halfway through.

I've only listened to the album twice mind you and not on my laptop yet.  Only on the stereo.  I wasn't paying attention to which tracks were which, so it could well be Part III that I was referring too.  Part II is the most well-known part though, as it has been performed since the 1970s.

And I now have room for a PM.
