On Eight II we look at five records from each of the years 1998, 2008 and 2018.
I'm leaning heavily to 2018 here but I'm not sure on my pick yet.

Anna von Hausswolff's for me.

1998 is a favourite year of mine. My avatar is of a 1998 release and my favourite concert happened in 1998 (but released in 1999) and a couple of my favourite concerts were released that year. Fabulous year. And 2008 has one of my very favourite albums with Portishead's Third (I consider it to be prog related anyway). With 2018, I really love Dead Magic, which gets my vote. I also like the Elpehant9, Far Corner, and UTO particularly. I have preferred the earlier Thinking Plague releases, but should play in Extremis again, which was the first TP album I heard. Last time I heard it I enjoyed it more than I did when I bought the album in I think 2004. I did enjoy the All Traps too.

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

Of those listed, I think it's got to be Spock's...

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

either Elephant9-Dodovoodoo or Anna Von Hausswolff-Dead Magic. I have to think about it.

2018 to be sure. However, I voted for The Magus due to a feeling that its highly-unusual sound needed some lovin' here.
