Strange. Try an advanced search, Search by Keyword = Dead Can Dance (Match All Words), search in Topic Subject, Find Posts = Any Date, All Forums.
This is what I used - the second post it found was the poll from April 2021.

I found the other poll that someone else mentioned. Are you using the Advanced Search?

Worked ok for me - search on "Dead Can Dance" in Topic Subject for Any Date. Found quite a few.

Dying Sun.......Spleen....Egg...Aion....all of them are excellent but never warmed up to the first one much.

I adore so many individual songs by DCD, but, when you're talking about albums, I have to go with Aion. I just love the mediæval European feel to it all.

No I meant a different DCD-live album titled Towards the Within - of course I meant Toward the Within!

Anyway, it's good I agree, but still my least favorite of the lot. No, wait that would be Spiritchaser. Second least favorite.

Interesting observation re: Magma.  I quite agree.

Still my vote would go to Aion.  Can't vote, not sure why.

Spleen and Ideal for me, but I love plenty of these.

I did a "dead can dance" search and nothing relevant came up (like always, when I try and run a search here)

Another year or so earlier I did one as well, but the search function here isn't that good. (Not worse than the one on the webpage of the institution for which I work - apparently it's not so easy to implement a decent search function.)

My vote always goes to Aion first, but  I love everything they've ever done.

It's a bit like Magma, they're very consistent and there are at least five candidates for voting (Dying Sun to Labyrinth and Anastasis). I'll vote for Serpent's Egg today but may prefer another one tomorrow. I've only heard their live album once quite some time ago, I should probably have it?
