World Record is such an underrated record

Agreed. Typically considered a step down, but for me personally it's a step up. I guess I'm quite alone in taking it that far, but it's pretty much perfect to my ears. Meurglys III, the Songwriter's Guild such a glorious non-epic (the much shorter end of the album Wondering has more of an epic feel really)

I really like World Record, but I am not familiar enough with ph7 to feel comfortable voting this time. EDIT: And, since the album was changed, I have the same situation of ignorance with The Future Now.

I think the poll result so far would have looked identical either way:)

World Record is more evenly consistent than Still Life but has less of the dramatic fireworks. I like it about the same as Still Life.

I like the Future Now because its a bit skronky and all over the shop.. PH's half-shaved face says it all.. its where two opposites meet and sometimes it doesnt work but i admire his bravery!Wink

World Record. I'm going to try and break the one for rocking in a rocking chair while holding a bowl of milk without spilling it.

I'm not sure, but I think I'm going with World Record. I always loved it. An underrated work.

"World Record", without hesitation.
 

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.
