It's so easy voting for Magma, but damnit if I don't just love that Ibliss Supernova album. Great for chilling in the sun and laying around like some psychedelic feline. Anyway that is where my vote went.
love that UFO Planante as well. Great job on that review John. It was what made me purchase it. |
IBLISS had a bit of a KRAFTWERK connection as the main percussionist played on that ORGANISATION record and the drummer on KRAFTWERK's debut. A trippy album where they seem to jam a lot. Flute and sax as well. Glad you have that UFO Planante record David it's a keeper.

Hey I just bought that Organisation album on vinyl  Feels much like the early Amon Düül albums, that is before they turned into Amon Düül Zwei!!! I do like that Organisation album more though. Ibliss' album does beat both of these, and I particularly like that flute...
Glad you wrote that UFO Planante review too

Thanks David, i remember feeling passionate about doing that review because of how much i liked the music.
I'm a big fan of that Organisation record too, although i must admit it's been a long time since i gave it a spin.

First vote for Nichelodeon

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

I am swinging and missing as badly as the Tigers on this poll. Another goose egg for me.

Tigers are still looking good, they just need one win and have Verlander for game 5 if it goes that far.

I had a listen to that Harmonia album today and damn it if it wasn't far better than what I remembered it to be... I think it was Danish PA member Paravion (where are you btw?) who was/is extremely fond of this recording - actually preferring it to the cult classic debut. Not many do. I must say that it was quite the trip - plus it has this warmth running through it that rather refreshingly distances itself from the colder ambiances of that debut. Very nice album indeed.

Same thing happened to me actually. I originally gave this 3 stars then i saw someone really praising it a long time afterwards so i thought i'd give it another listen and was really impressed so i bumped it up to 4 stars. Now i really enjoy it everytime i spin it.

Funny how music changes over time eh? Maybe it's the way we listen to it, but then again, I can't see myself surprised at how good a Britney Spears album suddenly sounds some 5 years down the line  I gather it's a combination of the overt ninja-like qualities we encounter on a day to day basis in many a prog artists' repertoires and that ever changing brain in the old cabeza... Either way, I'll never stop feeling immensely thrilled when encountering old music that you originally had written off - now exposing itself in a new manner, and you suddenly realise its potential and worth.
