I will kick things off with a vote for 'Frances the Mute', let's see how this one turns out... two seemingly incompatible records.   |

Camel far and away. Mars Volta never did much for me.

| Frances The Mute. Scary and brilliant. Camel are very nice indeed but TMV would scare them off stage if there was ever a showdown (of sorts). |

Frances the Mute is a great album, but no Moonmadness. |

I haven't heard Francis the Mute before (probably because he's a mute), so my vote goes to Moonmadness.

Paul and Mars Volta? You haven't paid much attention.

It may take me longer to reach The Mars Volta than it did to reach RW's The Red Planet recently. The Mars Volta may be prog like I've never heard it played before, but that's not necessarily a good thing.

Moonmadness, though I do prefer both The Snow Goose and Mirage. That said, I do like Frances the Mute. I hadn't liked De-Loused in the Comatorium, which I had purchased amongst many others without checking out music first back in like 2004 but then a couple of years later I heard Frances the Mute and that appealed to me much more. For those that don't know it -- personally, I (sorry for any tautology) don't like to vote in polls with limited choices before trying to check out the music -- this was one of my favourites from it: ------------- Just a fanboy passin' through. |

The Mars Volta do absolutely nothing for me, whilst Moonmadness is in my top 5 albums of all time. ------------- A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life. |

They are both equally good to me. Moonmadness is just a bit more equal...
