This is a great discussion. I really feel like RED is an album that is full of heavy expression and its a very important album in their discography. I know I'm no stranger to metal, but like you Michael I do see the guy at the vinyl shop's point even though it was kind of a flippant/over generalizing thought. Anyway, remember when dream theater set out to create their Train Of Thought album to be their full-on Ballz to the Walls album? They actually said that. Lol. Anyhow the RED album is king crimsons 'balls' album. But even still, they had STARLESS on that album which added some nice versatility and mood. RED is a winner for me. Definitely more than just insilant noise. Lol. Good discussion though for sure. Today ( my last day of holidays) Arena-- 7th degree of separation Fields of the Nephilim--Earth Inferno The Alan Parsons Project--Live extended rarities Nightwish--Angels Fall First My dying Bride--Turn loose the swans Anglagaård-- Hybris |

Cheers for the `Red' thoughts, lads! Just making we want to give it another spin in the next few days!
Lots of Arena love lately, I see! Carry on then! Guys, what do you think of `The Visitor'? I think it's got plenty of tasty moments, but considering it's often regarded as not only their masterpiece, but a Neo Prog overall standout as well, I sure listen to it much less than all their other albums! I'd go as far as saying that I find Paul Wrightson's vocals a little overdone on it. Now, I might be committing a sacrilegious comment there for you, Nick, because I know how much you adore `Pride' (which is still the only Arena album left I need to buy). How do you find him on this album? What did you think of the Secret Tales, Sam? Nick, playing the mighty MDB!! Probably my favourite metal band...although I've noticed recently there's about three or four albums of theirs I need to catch up on. Here's my choices for the last two days: Tangerine Dream - Melrose, Force Majeure, Franz Kafka: The Castle Spock's Beard - Snow Mystery - The World is a Game Logos - L'engima Della Vita Ozric Tentacles - Erpland Arti e Mestieri - Live 2000 Eccentric Orbit - Creation of the Humanoids Ashra - New Age of Earth Panna Fredda - Uno Glass Hammer - Ode to Echo, The Inconsolable secret (second disc) Thought Guild - Third Voyage, Electric Curios |

^ I listened 'The Visitor' for the first time yesterday and I really liked it but I didn't seem masterpiece material to me. I actually liked the first two albums better, but it's only my first impression.
That Secret Tales album is very good, but I think it might get better with more spins. I think I'll spin it more when I'll have something that really spins, like vinyl How cool is the 'Echoes' guitar effect on 'Il canto delle sirene'? What do you think of Melrose? Did you know there's also a portuguese Jazz Rock with the same name as Arti e Mestieri but written in portuguese? What are the odds?

Are you thinking of getting the vinyl of Secret Tales, Sam? If you haven't bought any LP releases by the Black Widow label before, I can tell you that you are in for a treat. They always to a beautiful job. Secret Tales is not an album that's instantly grabs you, but repeated listens reveal how varied and classy it is. A very nice album! I've now been able to listen to `Optical Race', `Lily on the Beach' and `Melrose' a few times. I lump these three in together as they all kind of have a pretty similar sound (but `Optical' is the most enjoyable for me). I think there is a ton of very strong melodies constantly popping up throughout them, and they're very easy to enjoy on a surface level. Not a lot of depth, but certainly nice undemanding albums. I actually accidently discovered that they are also perfect albums to play on my Ipod while I've been going to the gym! They're very beaty and up-tempo, really urges you on! Nick, you're a bit of a fitness guy, have you tried `Optical Race' at the gym?! |

I still have a lot of music to get before it (I'm still getting KC's albums as you could see ) but I hope I'll get some RPI soon. Thanks for your opinion
I always think there's always a good occasion to listen to any kind of music. It's cool that you found it

Great choices here Michael! About Spock's Beard... I hated them for years and Snow was the first album I bought, I just couldn't get into it but one thing I really liked was thoat distorted guitars sound and tone. Anyway it took me a few years to finally come around this one but once I did it really blew me away. Snow remains my favourite album from them, of course I don't know all of them just about half I guess.

Sagi! `Snow' is probably a bit too long, but I swear, HOW GOOD are the harmonies on this one?! I'll give him that, Neal Morse has simply the best ear for catchy melodies. Perhaps `Snow' is his greatest musical statement from his time with Spock's? Maybe....
It's so funny, when it came out, it was kind of noticeably more accessible....more commercial? There's lots of shorter songs, and many are quite pleasing, almost radio-friendly. It's funny how the reviews at the time started saying things like `Hmmm, there's quite a few subtle Christian elements in the lyrics...' Oh little did they know what waited just around the corner! When I played it the other day, it was more `Wow, he really went FULL Christian' on it, it's wasn't subtle at all! Bless you, Neal, I love you man! It's such a great album. |
