Been listening to a lot of Phideaux lately, particularly the last 3 albums. My favorite Phideaux album is Doomsday Afternoon, yet my favorite Phideaux track is Snowtorch (part one). I'm wondering how these two opening epic tracks from Phideaux's two highest-rated albums here at PA will fare when compared to each other.

I like both songs, but I think that it would have been more even to compare Microdeath Softstar with Snowtorch (Part One), because I am gonna have to vote for Snowtorch here. ------------- When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night. |

If we compare the two closing epics Microdeath Softstar and Snowtorch (Part Two), then I definitely prefer Microdeath Softstar

Yes I also prefer Microdeath Softstar I think it's the best song on the album, even though I like the whole album. I think it's a masterpiece. ------------- When he rides, my fears subside.

Can I suggest a third?
I really like the live version of Chubacabra. He asked me to make a video of this song for him. And I was at bloodfish for the recording of the remake of this track which has yet to be released. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0GffVaNQLw |

| And to answer the original question I would have to say Doomsday. You got to love the fact that he hired a orchestra for the opening of the MicroDeath Softstar. |
