Albums with / mean that I will probably do both.
I removed some albums, added some albums, and finally, I made the list of albums I want to have as my 17th review. ------------- http://www.formspring.me/Aragorn224" rel="nofollow - Trendsetter win! The search for nonexistent perfection. |

I just want an honest opinion. When you come to think of it, do you say an honest opinion, or a honest opinion? I never knew. ------------- http://www.formspring.me/Aragorn224" rel="nofollow - Trendsetter win! The search for nonexistent perfection. |

| Close to the Edge. You should start your review with the words: "What can I say about this album that hasn't already been said?" |

Argus, and not because your avatar. It seems people have love-or-hate relationship with it, while most of them fail to see any progressive music in it, so it should make an interesting read! |

And it will get the album one step closer to 1,000 reviews. I want to do the 1,000th review so I can start it off with "What can I say about the album that hasn't already been said."  ------------- Biggles was in rehab last Saturday |

Clarke, alot of their harmonies are prog, not to mention the complex structures of the songs. In my opinions, Argus is just an amazing album. it was also the first "prog" album I heard after DSotM and The Wall. ------------- http://www.formspring.me/Aragorn224" rel="nofollow - Trendsetter win!

I never questioned their prog credentials, but other people do.  |

I think you should say things that have already been said, for instance: 1) Epic 2) A true masterpiece 3) Symphonic 4) Easily 5 stars 5) Best album ever P.S. Otherwise, I like to start my reviews with 'what can I say that hasn't already been said before' and work my way backwards from there. |

Just think only 2653 more reviews to catch up with Sean Trane. But unfortunately he is a moving target.  ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Now it'll get worse. And this coming from someone who doesn't enjoy writing music reviews or reading them generally: I'd suggest that instead of asking other people what you should review, you should let the music choose you. If it inspires you, or you have something you really want to express about the music, then review it. Alternately, for fun, you could try a poll where you express your general sentiments/ ideas, main points that you want to make, or your angle/ point of attack, for potential reviews that you are considering making, and then we choose based on your expressed opinions. For my preference, I voted for You again (Gong's You, not a vote for you), but I have no idea which review is really best for you -- which album will generate the most inspired review. People complain of narcissism, but your choice should reflect on your muse (even if that muse is ultimately yourself -- your facets that draw you to something). Follow your bliss, just try not to drown when you see you reflection staring back up at you. And if making these polls is following your bliss, and reflects on your personality and way of making choices in life, then go right ahead with them. I might suggest a central thread without a poll, though, where you can list your newest choices and ask what people think so that you don't have to keep on making new polls all the time. It's more important what people have to say, and your discussions with them, than a simple vote which merely reflects on other's tastes. Follow your tastes, inclinations. and sensations, would be my suggestion, but that also implies that there is no reason why you should follow my suggestions. ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Duos for fave acts |

No worries, and I am incredibly indecisive, and too often regret my decisions even if I've obsessively spent ages weighing up my options (more usually I don't like to weigh at all and ignore them until crunch-time). I have OCD, and it commonly affects me quite profoundly.

Angel's Egg since I kinda quite like the Canterbury scene. Argus, Gentle Giant, or others wouldn't be bad, either.

I'm not exactly an authority here, but I think the insults have gone far enough right now. I don't even know this guy, but there is one thing I do know: I'm here for the benefit of my music tastes, not to make attacks at people.

Just a question: Why is your seventeenth review worthy of it's own thread? I understand like 100 or 500, but 17?? -------------
