I've got some Tangerine Dream sidelongs lined up for this. But don't know which one to choose.


With TD, "Atem" is the first to spring to my mind.
A strong contender right there. But they got plenty. When I think about it there's really no rule that says I can only choose just one. I wish I never found out Sunrise in the Third System/Fly and Collision of Comas Sola were seperated into two tracks. Then that piece would have been a no-brainer. Back when I discovered "all this" prog and related stuff, this kind of music was so unhip I got tons of albums literally for free. So I grabbed A LOT and just listened - without noticing such trivia.

Good choices! Of course I would have written no matter which top three you would have ended up with:)

Haha I didn't think you actually disliked it. But I suppose there's a chance I like it even better. I'm always completely blown away by its violently punishing, doomladen slowly building grooves, otherwordly soundscapes and evil growls. I tempted to describe it as catarthic (again), but I decided not to use such big words as often as I tend to do, so I won't. 

-Other than that "Les Cycles de Thanatos" - oh man that magnificent, epic length build-up certainly pays off! It takes both some musical genius and a lot of guts + confidence to pull that off. I think. Which is what I love about a lot of... prog. Yeah, for one thing I appreciate that they challenge themselves first - and then me. (but I prefer it when they somehow succeed as well - like Vortex do:)

We like that don't we? I know I often do. I haven't planned this through, but I'll make some polls where I'll introduce 10 darkly tinted tunes that last at least fifteen minutes - and that I love. That's all really. Don't know them? Well, here's your chance:
