What??? By extension, are you saying that Zeppelin IV (that's "4", not "IV" as in the drip to keep you alive - no irony intended) is not the fourth part of Zep I? Dude, you're harshing my buzz!
 

Er, I don't know what "harshing my buzz" means, but Led Zeppelin II is not the second part of Led Zeppelin I in the way that Tubular Bells II is to Tubular Bells. And so Led Zeppelin IV is not the fourth part of Led Zeppelin I. It's not even called Led Zeppelin IV officially. It has no title.
 
Funny you should mention Tubular Bells, that one cost me part of my hearing via "good" headphones, so I'd recommend against Silent Lucidity on aforementioned headphones...LZ IV has plenty of names: IV, Zoso (JImmy Page's symbol, actually Zofo), "the fourth album" (per Plant), "the unnamed album", runes, "four symbols"...Don't know what "harshing my buzz" means? A Google search is in order pronto (that means fast)...A phrase not used much across the pond I suppose...

In the 70īs Kansas had a lot of fully prog songs.
Iīm just saying that in the 80īs there were a lot of songs by big prog bands that were more pop or rock.

Silent Lucidity is brilliant IMO, A song about dream control. Listen on headphones to really hear what you call bollocks.

The real offenders are bands who record "Part II's" of initial hit records years later, then come out with live versions of those Part II's after their careers really tank. You know who you are...

Me too.

They are just mainstream Metal like Def Leppard. I like Empire though,in my opinion it is easily their best album.
 
Empire's their most accessible, Mindcrime their best (especially lyrically, but should have been spelled "Mindcryme"...Sorry, I don't know how to get the 2 umlauts over the "y")...
 
Empire's a toe tapper, open the car windows & step on the gas...
Mindcryme has fiber (it kept me regular for weeks)...Added bonus: It may have p*ssed off some conservatives who (still) don't believe that politics (or anything other than love letters or country lyrics) belongs in music. Are you listening, Congress...? I fear Zappa's appearance fell on deaf ears( transcript of letter at: http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=600529 , if anyone's interested)...

"Metropolis pt 2: SFAM" is a masterpiece ... Clap
Haven't heard "Operation Mindcrime 2" yet but the critics are not very good.
"Led Zeppelin II" can be considered a part 2 album ? Excellent classic. Clap

I kinda liked Mindcrime 2, the lyrics weren't as good, but there's some good songs to be had, my favorites being "Hostage", "Re-Arrange you", and "Junkie's Blues". I also prefer the guitar work on this one to the original OMC.

It can be bad it can be good.

Look at Riverside... their second album (which is part 2 of a trilogy) is really great and a continuation of the first one!Clap

Eloy's Ocean 2 is surprisingly lush and relaxing considering it came something like 25 years after the original. but I have a soft spot for everything that Eloy do, I could be very biased. Embarrassed
