By the way, James, thought you'd appreciate this.

I posted in the math rock thread looking for suggestions - Upsilon Acrux is considered like the most brutal thing they deal with! LOL

How do Giraffes? Giraffes! compare to Upsilon Acrux and Ahleuchatistas?

Not as good, but still very enjoyable.

I tried something from Don Caballero, though, and didn't really like it that much.

Hella is some sort of awesome, though. Big smile

I need to check some Don Caballero and Hella.

So out of Ups. and Ahleu. who do you prefer?

Don't we still have them under avant-prog? Confused

We do, but as math rock fans they checked them out.

Dim said they were "scary as hell". Big smile

Tough call. I only have one album from each, but I think I prefer UA.

They're awesome, that's what they are. Big smile

And I thought Ahleuchatistas were heavier... hmm.

I prefer Upsilon Acrux though. They have that King Crimson vibe.

Trondheim is mind-blowing.

This exceeds any of the avant pieces on the studio albums by orders of magnitude.

I like Planet X, guess I wasn't in the mood for it when I started playing it though.

Think I'll nuke it.

Chris was indeed correct about it being the best of the CDs. I've not heard the others yet but it's my favourite. I still love Stockholm & Goteborg though.

Have you got to disc 2 yet?

And do you think Alex will enjoy it?

Later Ben. Good luck with the band and do pop in from time-to-time when you can.

Take care. Hug
