There you go. I'm sure we can all agree that God's Penis is more potent than some boring state nobody cares about

Of course you'd say that. You came out of it.

Zappa is good, Magma is brilliant. I vote for Magma without any hesitation.

Fail.

Zappa was a genius, Vander is a brilliant composer but never crossed so many genres and the music of Magma will always sound too serious for the every-day listen for me.

Even if Zappa is one of the first artist that awoke me in my musical journey, I have to go with Magma. Vander is one of the most brilliant man of the 21st century. ( Zappa too I know, omg it's so hard to choose..) Go Magma!!

you tell somebody they fail for saying they like Magma. That doesn't sound pompous to you?

Doesn't sound too unlike something you would do. Wink

Dude, saying 'fail, double fail, etc' is a common thing here in PA, it's not an insult or anything.. just a bit of humor to generate discussion... ughh... now I know why you didn't vote for Zappa..

A funny band with a goofy shtick vs a funny man with several funny shticks.

Uncle Frank it is.

Vander is a genius as well - not only has he written all of the music, he's also developed a language for the band to use. Something Uncle Frank never did (to my knowledge). Plus, as Magma's music is too serious for an every-day listen for you, Frank's doesn't work as an every-day listen for me either anymore. Plus, Magma's got better bassists and a better drummer. Wink
