Ok, my
excellent-decent list. Similar to my last post, I like the latter albums well enough, I just don't find them particularly great and a big drop off from the former album. Interesting that most declines in quality I've found to be more gradual.
The Flower Kings: Paradox Hotel -> Sum of No Evil
Opeth: Blackwater Park -> Deliverance
Porcupine Tree: Signify -> Metanoia (as with Devy in my previous post, probably doesn't really count)
Queen: The Game -> Hot Space
Ulver: Perdition City -> Lyckantropen Themes/Svidd Neger
Angra: Temple of Shadows -> Aurora Consurgens
The Antlers: Hospice -> Burst Apart
Evergrey: The Inner Circle -> Monday Morning Apocalypse
In Flames: Reroute to Remain -> Soundtrack to Your Escape
Metallica: Load -> Reload (combined with my previous post, this shows the speed of their downfall
)
Queensrÿche: Promised Land -> Hear in the Now Frontier
Radiohead: OK Computer -> Kid A
Return to Forever: Romantic Warrior -> Musicmagic
