Padraic's current 2009 album of the year. That's a good enough rec. for me. I really need to hear that; maybe I'll hear it soon because my birthday's approaching. I'm listening to my current 2009 album of the year. I predict that HoL will be #2 on the PA 2009 list. I don't think so (though it's currently my #1)... Phideaux's new one is holding strong at 4.78 with like over 40 ratings (though only three of those are reviews, so there's that), and maudlin of the Well is holding strong for real for real (lots of reviews). New Porcupine Tree this year.

As a huge PT fan, I'm excited for that---but I really don't want it to dominate the PA charts again.

Also, as much as I really like them, I doubt it'll crack my personal top 5 (though Animal Collective isn't on PA, so I can't put them in my PA list).

This year has easily been the best year for music in a LONG time, in my opinion. And 2007 was really good too.

Not mine.

I don't think there's any way for me to make a top list anymore. Especially with all the jazz and other drummers that I'd be neglecting if I only did prog. It's impossible.

Solo Steve Walsh is amazing.

Did you know that Burt Ward recorded a record with Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention, "Orange Colored Sky & Boy Wonder I Love You"?

BUT IF YOU CALM---AND LET ME PASS
YOU MAY RENDER ME A WRECK---WHEN I COME BACK
SO CALM YOUR WAVES---AND SLOW THE CHURN
AND YOU MAY HAVE MY PRECIOUS BOOOONES

ON MY RETUUUURN

Hmmm.

Hazards of Love will win.  Trust me.  I know these things.

maudlin of the Well will not even be in the top 5.

I don't know about Phideaux.  They get mentioned here but not as much as The Decemberists.

If I can actually get to hear Cheer-Accident's lastest before the end of the year, it will likely take my number 1 spot.

However, there's the new Peter Hammill too and I NEED to hear it.  That could also be a big contender for me (not generally though).

I'll leave P.A. if Black Cloulds and Silver Linings comes first.  I'm serious too.

Oh and Octahedron will be in the top 3.

Camel = Snow Goose = album I feel asleep to.

Alright, guys, I'll be back soon!

Wilson could turn his grocery list into an album and play the guitar with his feet, and people around here would treat it like it was the word of God, if Insurgentes is any indication.

The Hazards of Love could come first, but look at the reviews for the whole band- The Decemberists are not nearly as popular as the forum makes them out to be.

And my album is sitting pretty at number 37.
