Both for the first time! So much Jørn Lande and Bob Catley... Not that that's a bad thing!

And thank God there's a mention of computers on this Ayreon album.

But album name is binary so

425 · « **Reply #2661 on:** October 17, 2016, 12:27:33 AM »

Yeah, but I was worried! I mean, there were computer songs on the first three albums, but the next three after that don't have any computer songs! So I was so glad to find out that there are computer lyrics here and that there's a full-on song about computers called "Web of Lies."

Edit: Just got to Derek Sherinian's solo. I could recognize his playing a mile away. So great.

And now, having decided that Liverpool v United isn't worth the rest of my evening...

Beardfish: Mammoth

I had no idea that this was out! I'll need a few more listens to tell whether this is as good as Heart of Oak, but I'm certainly enjoying it a lot on my first listen.

This album is one of the most beautiful things ever. Don't leave it with just one listen, it gets better and better.
Did I send you Clay?

In my top 5 of all time, for sure.

Second listen to both these albums. Both mindblowing.

Never really got into Solstafir but Neurosis are incredible.

Just stealing this from you guys

Good first impression, though the heavy more traditional TDEP songs still resonate with me the most. Could have done without "Fugue" though, completely pointless track imo.

Solstafir are quite roughshod, their vocalist is all over the place, but it works for me for some reason. It juxtaposes with the whole majestic post-rock sound in an interesting way.

I've gotta give this a listen. Starting well so far

Half way through and I'm not minding this at all, but I don't like how regressive it sounds. I loved the direction they took for In Rolling Waves but this new one sounds a lot more like Passive Me, Aggressive You - with it being much too similar at times. I can see this being somewhat of a grower but I'm still disappointed that they made this instead of making a true follow-up to In Rolling Waves, moving forward from that style instead of going backwards.

Extremely underrated records, they're both awesome. These guys were an amazing band, it's a shame they never got the success they deserved.

Neurosis generally bores me but Solstafir is pretty great, Kold is probably the album I like the most but there are some stellar tracks on Svartir too
