Here we go with the first round of The Whirlwind, which will run for three days! Quite a coincidence that Neal just announced that they'll be playing the whole main album for Morsefest 2022 next Spring!

[DTA]

I've never heard the b-sides so they won't factor into my voting unfortunately. Dancing With Eternal Glory for me...those long songs at the end of already-long songs just wear me down.

[darkshade]

Lending a Hand. The only song here I can't recall by memory.

Dancing With Eternal Glory / Whirlwind (Reprise)

I've always been underwhelmed by the ending to the album.

Also, I am not familiar with the bonus tracks at all.

[Metro]

Never cared for the bonus tracks so let’s get those out of the way first

[RoeDent]

Yeah, bonus tracks have got to go before anything on the album proper.

Yeah, bonus tracks have got to go before anything on the album proper.

I think Spinning is a good TA song, better than at least one of the main album tracks when taken out of context, but I always listen to TW in full.

[jammindude]

It only now occurs to me how little I am familiar with albums three and four. I feel like I know the first two so well. But TW didn’t hit me when it first came out and 77 minutes is a long time to set aside to listen to one piece of music. Then Kaleidoscope came out and did absolutely nothing for me. (Especially Shine…which borders on self-parody)

But the new album has me wanting to re-listen to these two albums. But I don’t feel I know them well enough to vote.
