Weird mix, not gonna lie. Smile I'll give ATDI a shout. I know it's just an EP, but those guys were on fire back in 99.

Varied and good selection of albums Andrew! I wish I was listening to this kind of music at your age Thumbs Up
 
As much as I love that KC show I'll go with Cornell. Although I knew the vocals would be very good, I was quite surprised at how good the music is. An excellent addition to the Soundgarden fans.

My favorites from '99 are Sigur Ros's Agaetis Byrjun and the Flaming Lips's The Soft Bulletin.

If you favour music quality over production quality, My Fruit Psychobells is a really great album

Psychobells from this list, but In the Woods... Strange in Stereo would be my favorite.

I am currently digging:

Hawkwind, Rare Bird, Gong, Tangerine Dream, Khan, Iron Butterfly, and all things canterbury and hard-psych. I also love jazz!

Please drop me a message with album suggestions.

Was just listening to Camel today...I'd recommend starting with 1974's Mirage.  It's a masterpiece from beginning to end.

^ Unless you are into prog-pop, which is why I would recommend Breathless. Very pop in some places, very instrumental in others. But I guess you aren't.

My dad loves Dream Theater

I like some of their stuff, but it's a bit too dramatic for me. And too cleanly produced

Never really got into that guy. Not really a country guy myself, just never been my thing. Americana and Roots Rock can be pretty cool.

Scenes from a Memory for me, either that or Stupid Dream. Also, Still Life is an incredible album even though I can't say I've listened to it a lot yet.

No, no he's perfect for that band. I'm just bashing on the poor guy. LOL No, but like he's great for Dream theater. I can't really see anybody else fronting the band.

No matter. The bottom line is that lately I see James getting crapped on a lot for his voice. I mean, it wasn't his fault that his voice turned rusty in '94. So I was thinking if DT fans would feel a whole lot differently about James and the band if he was subbed by someone else at the time.

Oh you guys. Dream Theater is obviously the best and the greatest band ever. Seriously.

Who knows the best DT album shouldn't have problems with that sentence (it's Italian, not Spanish) LOL
