Put another way, Milton is dead wrong.

one month passes...

I think as a rule I can sympathize with this, but have a hard time understanding that on this album.

How can you like TD but not like the part on the title track (part 2?) with the descending piano riff, disco-ish drum groove and guitar? These guys have never been about virtuosity. And the drums alternating between the motorik beat and open hats is totally thrilling stuff and it's by no means the wanky soloing on "Cloudburst Flight" (which is being played over such a mightily awesome synth bass riff I don't really care).

And while the synth arpeggios on "Thru Metamorphic Rocks" are indeed insane (and the soundtrack to the awesome heist scene in Michael Mann's Thief), the heroic melodic stuff in the second section achieves some kind of weird stately beauty.

I love this album unconditionally.

I stand by this poorly written post unconditionally.

five years pass...

I’m back to agree with myself yet again.

I'll agree with both of you

This is notably the start of their descent into unnecessariness, sorry.

I still think Big Edgar was a crappy guitarist.

They still had like 5 albums after this!

More like 50.

Alan Alba (Tom D.), Saturday, 7 July 2018 19:38 (five years ago) link

Sorry I meant to say 5 good albums!

Ha, yes, more like it.
