Quite an uneven discovery, but way more organized and of way better quality than my last poll.

This one builds on another poll that I came across about an hour ago. It should still be very recent.
Well, let me know what you think!

For me, it's Disengaged!

The song is just called "Disengage," and it is a good one.

Arrow's completely wrong for your poll. What a snore.

What's wrong with Arrow? Great song, really.
At least, I think so.

Arrow's slow build up doesn't offer it the immediacy of a song like Disengage. Granted, it's a popular VdGG number.

Then Scorched Earth probably also won't fit. Tongue

Disengaged. I don't really like Peter Hammill (I know, kind of weird), so I'm not really into these songs, but I think he did a decent job on Disengaged.

all very aggressive songs; I'll go with "Disengaged" (the vinyl version; the singing is different on CD. the singing on the vinyl version is much more aggressive)

No absolute favorites all pretty great still (if Birthday Song is the same as Birthday Special). Guess I'll go for one one of the two Godbluff-options.

^Exactly my thoughts.  The vinyl version is by far the better of the 2 and along with the live Nadir's Last Chance & Ship of Fools on Vital, my fave PH song Wink
