Album Of The Week #2

[SnakeLady]

The Cult - Electric

[Serendipity]

Y & T - Yesterday and Today Live. Just three more weeks...

[Jonny B]

I had a serious temptation to place Eden's Lie as my AOTW for a third week in a row. It would make sense since the cd release party is in two days.

However, it's not the case. I've chosen Ambeon "Fate of A Dreamer," for my AOTW, now that I've finally figured out how to make the damn disc work in my cd carousel (yes, it's very quirky.) Overall, my #2 all-time favorite female-fronted album, behind Within Temptation "The Silent Force."

[Taliwakker]

Sphere of Souls-From the Ashes....the dutch may not be much chop in the soccer dept. but they produce some pretty decent prog bands.
This is the (ex)singer from Sun Caged new band...has Joost whatshisface on keys too.

[Bobbi Flekman]

It's a good thing that I absotively don't give a rat's @ss about football, so I am not offended by you...

As for aotw I think I'll have to go with The Corrs "Borrowed Heaven" because that is just about the only thing I played this week. Oh... And also the first one by King's X...

[Kenny]

Wetton/Downes - 'Icon'......some of the best and sweetest melodies I have heard in an age.

[doggy]

ATOW is "Unreleased" by Tour De Force.

[Serendipity]

Sphere of Souls-From the Ashes....the dutch may not be much chop in the soccer dept. but they produce some pretty decent prog bands.

I'd say there's nothing wrong with your country's soccer coach, Tali.

Another live album for me this week: Iron Maiden - Live After Death.

[Rock.Collector]

Rock.Collector's album of the week is:

SKAGARACK - Hungry for a Game

A really "Must-Have" album !!!

It was more of a veiled compliment on your country's music scene.

He's been good....we're up against Brazil next...so we'll see how good he's actually been.

Good luck on the next match... Who knows, maybe they'll meet each other in the finals...

My AOTW goes to H.I.M. "Dark Light." Not sure why. The music doesn't really offer alot to the ears, but I've been in a simple melodies/commercial goth mood, so that is why I have chosen this one. Strangely, the singer sounds very similar to Gary Hughes.

[doggy]

ATOW is Heartbreaker" by Paul Sabu.

[Bobbi Flekman]

You're a funny guy Tali.

Oh well... I'll take another CD of you then. You may post it as your own AOTW in a couple of weeks of course.

After Forever - Remagine

[Jonny B]

Nope. Actually, don't have any at all.

Why? Do you know of a woman who's lonely?

[SnakeLady]

Listening to Pride of Lions - live in Belgium

[Kenny]

You mean a woman who likes anal sex???

My AOTW is John West - 'Earth Maker'

Don't all woman like it....regardless of what they tell you

I had two metal operas on the table, but which one to pick...

The first is Aina "Days of Rising Doom." There's a lot of story crammed into 2 discs...I'm wondering if maybe they needed 3?

The other is Ayreon "Into the Electric Castle." Musically it's fantastic, but I'm pissed that 3 of my 4 favorite singers are killed off in the storyline. (not to mention that Sharon den Adel didn't have much of a role.) I'm only thankful Arjen Lucassen didn't kill off his own character. (yes strangely, I do like his vocals.)

The winner? Neither. I still need to listen to them more.

Nor will I default to my previous AOTW. Like all commercial albums, they get played alot and then are shelved for a long time.

I'm at a loss for an AOTW. I've been working too much.

There may be a lot of story....but only enough good music for about a 30 minute ep.

As for the Ayreon cd....its awesome...my second fave after T.H.E.

Have you got the Star One Live on Earth dvd yet JB? They do quite a few songs off Electric Castle on it.......+ an awesome guitar vs keytar duel between Arjen and Joost where Joost totally owns Arjen in the middle of 'Amazing Flight in Space'.

I don't think many copies of Star One made it here to the states. I've seen it only twice, both times I opted for Ayreon purchases.

[doggy]

My ATOW is "Rebel Meets Rebel", features the late Dimebag Darrel of Pantera fame.

[Taliwakker]

Wastefall-Self Exile.

I've only met a couple who liked it in the shit-chute.....but then with a thick cock like mine, that's understandable.

I don't really get it myself......though I did stick a hairbrush up my ass once when I was jerking off, but I was young and stupid ......and it WAS the handle end.

Anyway. This week I've been listening to Rush - 'Presto'

[SnakeLady]

hmmm how do I get rid of that picture in my mind!

I´ve been listening to Queensryche - Mindcrime II favourite songs on it ....Hostage, The Hands and Speed of Light!

[Kenny]

:lol: hmmm how do I get rid of that picture in my mind!

S'alright Snakey, I was only joking......

[Jonny B]

I don't have an AOTW this week. I had a really rough band practice last sunday that ended with an argument over cover songs, and since then I've had no interest in listening to music.

I'll choose Ayreon "Fate of A Dreamer" as a default choice for now.
