I know many of you hugely enjoyed debating the nature of a 'break' in the last poll of this kind so let's see how our heroes fared having returned for 'sloppy seconds'...

it’s really only between Thrak and Present for me, and I gave the nod to Krimson.
After those two, it would then be between 90210 and Invisible Touch.

King Crimson. Thrak is an album I really enjoy listening to.

Not this again. Confused

At least these are a bit longer and not like the last one. 

Anyway, it's nice to see some on here get the 90210 joke.

Don't worry, there won't be a III as the returns are considerably diminished.

In the last poll I chose KC over VDGG, so now it's the other way around. I don't think Present is as good as their classic albums, but it has some excellent tracks and none are bad. I'm talking of the album proper here. The second disc with improv jams is very much hit and miss to me, but does have its moments.

I would've voted for Fly from Here by Yes if there'd been a third comeback poll. Smile

90125 was better than its two predecessors, but ... KA is the best Magma album since Köhntarkösz.

Half of these options I find rather weak or uneven. Thrak and K.A. are alright but don't stand out as particularly memorable in my mind, so I'm left with no other choice except the apparently unpopular Invisible Touch which is the only one of these that has a place in my heart despite its adorably dated 80s quality.
