RAC #1/3 for this week, 19.03-26.03 will be dedicated to 2007, a pretty interesting and strong year for prog rock in my years, so let's see which is your favorite album of the 15 'random' ones I have picked, fellow forum users. Please vote and comment! As much as I enjoy most of the records I have included, it is impossible for me not to vote for my favorite Porcupine Tree album (which I can surely predict will be the winner in this poll)

Ultimately Anekdoten again. The Dear Hunter is great except that I don't like their vocals. Fear... left me disappointed, Nil Recurring is somewhat better but not among their best. |

Went with Porcupine Tree here. Systematic Chaos surely was.... There are two albums on this list that I really should have - by Hevy Devy and Phideaux... My favourite from this year is Dark Passion Play by Nightwish.

Many great albums from 2007, it's very difficult. Fear of A Blank Planet, Doomsday Afternoon, Night, In Rainbows, What Have We Sown, Rapid Eye Movement,
I'll have to og with Gazpacho's Night, barely over FOABP. Night is their best album and a great piece of work.
I haven't heard Sola Scriptura, but based on my experience with Neal Morse I'm doubtful it would beat the other albums. |

| The Flower Kings. The Sum of no Evil is a really good album that I still enjoy very much. |

I can't believe that Doomsday Afternoon is already 14 years old... ------------- I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution |

From the list I like the Dream Theater. Not their best but a solid album. Marilyn has appeared in several of your polls. Is that the 'random' part? I prefer these in 2007 to what is listed: Anti-Depressive Delivery, Riverside, or Seiges Even. |

I almost voted for Marilyn Manson. It was a bit of a toss-up between that and Beardfish, but I gave the nod to Beardfish. ------------- https://tinyurl.com/nickhnz-tpa" rel="nofollow - Reviewer for The Progressive Aspect |

From this list I'm picking Anekdoten. The Flower Kings, Phideaux, and Beardfish would be next. A couple more from 2007 of interest: Ritual - The Hemulic Voluntary Band Black Bonzo - Sound of the Apocalypse Puppet Show - The Tale of Woe Oblivion Sun - Oblivion Sun Din Within - Awaken the Man Conqueror - 74 giorni Anima Morte - Face the Sea of Darkness D.F.A. - Kaleidoscope ------------- ---------- i'm shopping for a new oil-cured sinus bag that's a happy bag of lettuce this car smells like cartilage nothing beats a good video about fractions |

2007 was a great year for music. As much as I like a lot in your list of 15, I suspect I like all the albums in this list of 15 more. And I could probably come up with another list of 15 albums from 2007 I love. And another... 😜 Amorphis - Silent Waters Chrome Hoof - Preemptive False Rapture Dial - Synchronized Flor de Loto - Madre Tierra Ulver - Shadows of the Sun Kekal - The Habit of Fire Nemo - Si, Partie II Nine Inch Nails - Year Zero Oceansize - Frames Radiohead - In Rainbows Riverside - Rapid Eye Movement Shining - Grindstone Serj Tankian - Elect the Dead Vintersorg - Solens Rötter Virgin Black - Requiem: Mezzo Forte ------------- https://tinyurl.com/nickhnz-tpa" rel="nofollow - Reviewer for The Progressive Aspect |
