I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

Haven't read the above reviews yet, but listened to the new Anekdoten again today and it certainly is quite wonderful.

I just came over to mention Michael's excellent review of Anekdoten's latest and saw Progbethyname and Meltdowner's mention of the reviews I did so thankyou very much guys! It was a pleasure doing the Anekdoten and Wilson reviews, my daughter bought me the downloads from I-tunes for both. Much prefer the physical product and I did put them on cdrs, but I love the liner notes.Angry Beggers can't be choosers as they say. 
You did crush it Michael.

Just read master Mike's Anekdoten review for their latest album. What positive praise. I'm sure to pick up the album very soon. Way to go Michael! Sounds like a positive spin on all counts.

You crushed it.

I really like Nick's review, a very passionate one Clap I didn't find 'Seventh Degree' loud, quite the contrary actually, I think it's an high quality vinyl Smile

John's reviews of Steven Wilson and Anekdoten were a great read Thumbs Up


Thank you Sam. Means a lot coming from you.
As for the loudness present on seventh degree, it's there. Man, I wish I could let you hear my sound chain. Imagine if a music recording was a layer skin...well with the equipment that I have it goes beneath the surface. You can really get a strong sonic difference between numerous recordings available. I assure you, buddy.
Remember, I am in analog warmth land as well. No digital for nick. Lol

But Nick, way to go, my friend, you knocked it out of the park with your Arena review. Couldn't think of anyone better to write reviews for their albums, I know you're such a mad fan of them.

I have one request - PLEASE review that latest Lunatic Soul album! You're spoken so passionately about it, and I think you'd deliver the goods with your own write-up on it!


Oh you are trapping me to write more!! you are a smart one, Michael cause you know I can't say 'no' to a good friend. Consider it my next project. I would definitely have more good than bad things to say about Duda's latest work. ;)
I've also got his first album ordered. Should arrive in a week. I'm looking forward to hearing it cause I wanna understand more of how Lunatic Soul came to be. Can't wait. ;)

And thank you again for your kind encouragements. It felt good to give an excited praise for one of my all time favourite bands. Arena really agree with me. ;)

Michael ( Aussie Byrd Brother) 's review on "The lonely Robot's: Please come home" and of course Arena's
The Unquiet Sky.
Very charming and detailed reviews all around. I feel I would have no need to say anything about the latest Mitchell offering because Michael covers every train of thought I would have had to say so artfully. Once again. 2 more great reads.

John (Mellotron storm ) for inciting some huge excitement and praises for the latest and long time coming Anekdoten album. Looks promising and I feel compelled to check it out.

Really great new reviews from Michael (ABB) and my PSIKE buddies Clap I only know the albums from The Doors and Therion but the other two seem really interesting.

Hi Mellotron Storm, just noticed this.

I'm sorry you didn't find my feedback about your review positive, though I'm slightly puzzled about what I said to make you feel that? For the record I took it as a pretty positive review of an album that wasn't really your thing, and I though it was a good, and fair, review :)

I really enjoyed TCat's A Silver Mt Zion review, especially the background info related to the album and GY!BE. Well done!

Cool to see Iain and Steve G review the same album back to back with very different opinions. While I agree more with Steve G's review Iain always impresses me with his words and intelligence.


There's no right and wrong in art. Different perspectives are always healthy. Thanks

Thanks Jim. For me Syd is unclassifiable.

Hey John, being a huge keyboard fan I wondered which  album are you referring to? There are a few mentioned in this exchange?
Thanks

Thanks Horizons, yes JD I was talking about Patchwork Cacophony and man he uses a ton of different keyboards. Well worth checking out.
