Do tell! I have a comp by Erik Lindgren from BotM but its mostly commercial jingles and assorted pop tunes he did in the late 70s and 80s. I assume this is more avant?

This is my first listen to the album, and my first exposure to the band.
This is the introduction of the CD, which I thinks says a lot about what is within. "For their 13th album and in their 25th year together, post-punk, art-rock pioneers Birdsongs of the Mesozoic join forces with bass-baritone vocalist Oral Moses, who specializes in the art-song and spiritual repertoire of African-American composers, on a program of well-known spirituals. Together they bring these centuries-old songs into the 21st century">

I never exactly could figure out what that album was about, so I never got around to buying it even though it was four dollars. Birdsongs has decent chamber prog cred, but I just never bothered. How is it?

Well, it's looking like I won't make it all the way through my latest 50 (20 to go) before some new ones I have on order arrive. Life is tough.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

An album I'd like to review some time in the future... This is REAL prog-metal, IMHO:

That's an album I'd like to buy, but it's been out of print for ages... Some day, some day.
