You shouldn't expect...I have voted Time's Forgotten  ------------- I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution |

Just based on what was posted and a little youtube digging (i.e early impressions): Neither are altogether my taste, Octopus more-so, but Octopus' skill easily outshines that of Time's Forgotten for me. I do find that perhaps at times Octopus might benefit from a little more restraint, and with Time's Forgotten, despite some very good acoustic guitar work, it strikes me as rather amateurish (mostly from a compositional standpoint). I prefer the jazzier Octopus to the more symph-oriented Time''s Forgotten. Based on my rather too limited listening and too limited time to properly assimilate the music, an easy vote for Octopus from me. Very good band.
------------- 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. |

Octopus play some heavy sh*t and i have a couple of theirs that i do like. The other band is new to me but after some listens i have to go with the 8 legged band. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

I own two Time's Forgotten's albums which are pretty cool. Octopus are also nice, but I have not been into their music actually, in spite I saw them live in the last Baja Prog Fest. ------------- Follow me on twitter @memowakeman |
