Mine is much the same and could be substituted with yours. This band is amazing and my favourite band from Canada -- do I feel a Rush vs. GY!BE poll coming on?

Godspeed You! Black Emperor

F♯A♯∞ (1997)
Lift Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven! (2000)
Yanqui U.X.O. (2002)
Slow Riot for New Zerø Kanada E.P. (1999)
G_d's Pee AT STATE'S END! (2021)
'Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend! (2012)

'Asunder, Sweet and Other Distress' (2015)
"Luciferian Towers" (2017)
All Lights F***ed on the Hairy Amp Drooling (1994)

^ Yep, it really does not matter. Still I think if I focused on GY!BE's and Rush's 90s to early 2000s runs, or second and third albums of each, GY!BE could do well comparatively. But I would not want to be accused of rigging such a poll even if it might make the results more even as one is way better known and much more popular/talked about band at PA. Just a thought...

Cocteau Twins

Heaven or Las Vegas (1990)
Treasure (1984)
Head Over Heels (1983)
Aikea-Guinea (1985, EP)
Garlands (1982)
Blue Bell Knoll (1988)
Victorialand (1986)
The Moon and the Melodies (1986)*
Four-Calendar Café (1993)
Milk & Kisses (1996)

Note: I included The Moon and the Melodies which is basically Cocteau Twins plus Harold Budd, so a collaboration. Songs like "She Will Destroy You" and "Sea, Swallow Me" are wonderful to my ears.
