Dont want to take away from the other thread, but I found it too hard to decide. Tell us your favorite year of a specific genre, decade, band etc. I will love to hear your thoughts!

It's very difficult even if we go genre wise actually.  I will take my two favourite genres:  eclectic and symphonic and stick only to relatively big names.


Symphonic

1970:  Trespass, EL&P s/t
1971: Nursery Cryme, Tarkus, Fragile
1972: Foxtrot,. Close to The Edge
1973: SEBTP, BSS, Ashes Are Burning
1974: Lamb Lies Down on Broadway,  Turn of the Cards

Eclectic

1970: H to He, Lizard
1971:  Acquiring The Taste, Pawn Hearts
1972: Three Friends, Octopus
1973:  LITA, In A Glass House
1974:TPATG, Red

Honestly can't choose one year each from either of these. Confused  Maybe 1972 for symphonic and 1973 for eclectic, but it's damn hard.  If I did a similar exercise for tech-extreme prog metal, the results would be similar too.

What, your tech-extreme prog metal list would start at 1970 and end at 1974?? LOL

Aw, come on, you've got to give me more credit than that.  Wink I meant that again the representative tech extreme albums are spread out over the years starting with probably the first one Watchtower's Energetic Disassembly in 1985, so it's very difficult to pick one year as my favourite year for tech-extreme.
