So there is a new Majeure album out...and it's pretty good. I'm not sure how it stacks up with Timespan which I loved. I thought that even the Timespan remix album was pretty incredible. I need more time with Solar Maximum but for the most part it's pretty much an extension of the first one.

An extension in the best way possible.

not as good as timespan imo but timespan is so so great. still a darn good record tho. also the 'synthesizer of the gods' ep is top hole
i'd like to hear them both extend themselves a bit more on their solo stuff. surely moore has another 'henge' (in spirit if not necessarily in sound) in him somewhere

I agree, Timespan would be awfully hard to match.
Henge certainly is great. Definitely one of the only albums out of this genre to legitimately scare me. Not that that is the ultimate goal here. But I think it even has a jump-scare moment in there somewhere.
I haven't heard Synthesizer of the Gods. That's a Majeure EP?

Is Zombi's cover of "Green Earrings" floating around anywhere? Used to be on Soundcloud, but seems to have vanished.

Absolutely digging this. Not as overtly soundtrack-y as Prophecy, as if that was a problem, which it's not IMO.

It's back online!

Now that we’ve had a few days to process the loss of the great Walter Becker we'd like to offer, as comic relief, our cover of “Green Earrings.” An outtake from our 2003 'Twilight Sentinel' "sessions." Special Guest Jeff Gretz on auxiliary percussion.

The new Steve Moore album Beloved Exile is good in general but I especially love the last track, “My Time Among the Snake Lords,” and how it shapeshifts seamlessly throughout - I think it might be the longest solo track he’s recorded? I may be wrong.

Looks to be about the same as the closing track on The Henge.
I didn't even know he had a new one, thanks for the tip. It's really quite good but not surprising- the quality level of his releases is generally high imo.

New album coming soon! Is the title a nod to Van Halen's 1984?
