We have 15 albums from 15 different sub-genres al ranked 46th in their respective subs based on a search done on the site. One vote. There are five on here I rate really high. There are others I'd vote for as well, but it's the five from... One Shot Et Cetera Igra Staklenih Perli Panzerpappa La Maschera Di Cera I decided to go with One Shot this time. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

Transatlantic ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson |

I'm choosing Kraftwerk's Trans-Europe Express over Morte Macabre's Symphonic Holocaust, but love both of those albums. I also have enjoyed One Shot's Ewas Vader but have not listened to it much since it came out. ------------- Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me. |

I had to look up that Ayreon album as I sort of got out of Prog Metal for years. I'm getting back into it now and see this is rated high. And hey it's Ayreon! ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

I usually guess wrong but I figured this was the album to beat on this poll. Such an exciting time when these well know musicians from Marillion, Spock's Beard, The Flower Kings and Dream Theater got together. Too many cooks in the kitchen I figured back then, but it seemed to work out over the years. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

It sure is. The album cover highlights Larry Coryell and drummer Jon Hiseman but this has a strong German flavour with the great Wolfgang Dauner on keyboards and Gunter Lenz on bass. American Fred Braceful who was living in Germany at this time is on drums. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

I clearly underestimated this album. I thought Transatlantic might run away with this poll. I'm usually wrong anyways when I try to predict who will get the most votes in these polls. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

Ahh, I thought Kraftwerk here. Two of your top three have enough mellotron to sink a ship. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

I remember the Zappa influence. And Rikard is not only of course here with his band Beardfish, but he was part of Big Big Train's Folklore alum that's on this poll. He gets around. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

I should like Transatlantic but sadly I don't. It's not that I don't like their individual projects/groups ( I really do) but I just couldn't connect to their music for some reason. Lifesigns was altogether a better 'Supergroup' for me and I love their 3 albums but that one is never talked about. |

So glad to see your vote for this one. Possibly my favourite album from Yugoslavia. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

Could be my top two as well. I wanted to vote for Panzerpappa but One Shot is a huge favourite of mine. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

Nice to see Hidden Details mentioned at least. I liked that one a lot. Will it be their last? But Knirsch is the real deal. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

I saw Soft Machine live when Hidden Details came out (actually the only time I saw them). Very good album and a pity that it doesn't have votes. They released another album in 2023, Other Doors, which I didn't like quite as much. I just saw that you reviewed it at the time. ------------- I make typos so you see I'm not a machine, but I may be a machine pretending to not be a machine. |
