You've got all day have you ? Easy one for me. Anathema do not move me. One step away from AOR. Swans .... love it love it love it. ------------- Andrew B “Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read.” ― Julius Henry Marx |

I am digging this 2nd album... which I never made it to in the first round. There is some stuff here (doing a youtube listen so no idea which is what when it comes to individual tracks) which is frickin fantastic.. and though there is some that is merely OK... I haven't really heard anything that sinks the overall experience. This seems to be the kind of album that needs multiple mulitiple listens to fully grasp. Much to much for only one sitting. Halfway through the 2nd album.. then I suppose on to the Anathema album to decide the vote for this one. ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

well... that was interesting.. I'm tempted to do that all over again.. but think I'd get a frying pan from Raff over the head on to Anathema ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

it is a looooooooo....oooooooooong album John Nearly two and half frickin hours. but it is worth the attempt. Some really great stuff on there. An album I feel may be worth the time to fully digest. Hard to judge based on 1.5 listens.. but I liked it. ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

| Two of my favorites out of the polls. Very hard to decide since I dig them both so much, so I asked my wife to pick, thus Judgement it is. |

You might try Anathema's second album, The Silent Enigma, Micky. It's got the dark atmosphere of Judgement, probably more so, but has some real fire to go with it, something the band completely lost from Alternative 4 onwards. ------------- Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005 |

Neither album is a favourite (and that's an understatement), but Swans have the edge in terms of creativity - so Swans it is. |
