Riverside. ------------- ...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology... |

Any other year and I would have picked Riverside. Even though Second Life Syndrome is my favorite album by Riverside, I like Frances the Mute more. However, I am not a big fan of Mars Volta overall. Riverside, on the other hand... I love that band. ------------- https://gamecrazyprofessional.weebly.com/ |

Mars Volta. Cassandra Gemini is the single greatest track of the 2000s. ------------- With magic, you can turn a frog into a prince. With science, you can turn a frog into a Ph.D. and you still have the frog you started with. |

Lars Volvo for me by quite a vast margin. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.” - Douglas Adams |

Second Life Syndrome. The title track is (one of) the tracks of the 2000s and the album is one of my top 5 of all time. I'd rather not say what I think of Frances the Mute. ------------- A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life. |

Riverside, no doubts. SLS is their best album and one of my favourite when talking about modern prog-rock. -------------

Going with SLS, Riverside's best album IMO. Admittedly, though I haven't spent quite enough time with FtM, though the last time I heard it, it kinda blew me away. So, maybe just need to give it some more listens. ------------- Z |
