Carboniferous was great, IMO. I haven't really heard E-Re, so I can't say PtS is better, but I doubt it. Tongue

I've listened to both, but I still haven't changed my mind that "Part the Second" is the best album of the year, as well as one of the best of all time.
 
Part the Second- 5 Stars
E-Re- 4 Stars

I agree with everything you said there. Although I think E Re is very close to being a 5 star disc.

PtS is a nice album.

However, that's its flaw.  It's only a nice album.  Nothing more.

E-Re is flawed only slightly.  Not by much though.

Hence why I prefer Sensible Shoes.  It's just perfect all the way through.

I agree, it is quite enjoyable, especially if I'm in the mood, but it really doesn't revolutionize anything for me.

Neither does PtS.

Ewww.

I prefer the "edge" of E-Re.  I don't tend to listen to quieter albums like PtS as often.

E-Re also has the advantage (or disadvantage?) of sounding even much more awesome live.

That it does. Big smile

That's the highlight of my year.

I saw Magma
I met sexy Melissa again
I met Chris Syz
I re-met the guys from Guapo sans Dave Smith
I met Kristoffer from Ulver
I almost met Charles Hayward

All on the same day.

Epic.

Kristoffer does.  No idea about the rest of the band, as they were still in Norway.

David's New Year's Resolution should be to listen to decent music.

What kind of people did you see at the Magma concert?  I'm sure it would be quite an experience.

Normal people.

Really.

A lot of people were there for the support bands and then left when Magma came on. Confused  I mean left before they came on... ConfusedOuch

But there were young and old there.  However, I think only a few of us were serious fans.  I shouted out "Magma iss deh Hundin" as they walked on stage. LOLEmbarrassed
