@Aetas @goosehd You may already know this, so apologies if I am telling you yesterdays' news. Steven Wilson and Tim Bowness (his partner in No-Man) actually started a podcast called "The Album Years" in which they talk about their favourite albums from across the musical spectrum released in one particular year, with an emphasis on records that haven't necessarily been discussed and dissected to death

@Tago Mago I wasn’t aware and will dig into this during the weekend. Really appreciate the info!!

Opeth, Wilson ? Would people who love great denim would have great taste in music ?
Did you try Storm Corrosion ? The one album project by Steve Wilson and Mikael Åkerfeldt.
To be honest I'm not a fan of it, but what Iike with these guys is they don't fear to experiment and get out of the rock/metal clichés. -
@Tago Mago Can is the shit…the story behind Damo Suzuki is rad as hell. Omar Rodríguez-Lopez (At the Drive in, The Mars Volta) did an album with him in 2007. Super groovy stuff.
Omar Rodriguez-Lopez is an amazing guitar player to see live. I had the pleasure of watching him play a solo show one time in DC and with The Mars Volta twice in Baltimore.

I was just out petting the neighbors dog and I was reminded of this song

@Aetas @Tago Mago Just finished listening to 1980 of the album years and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you both very much.

@Oaktavia thanks for the link, didn't know about this. At The Drive-In and The Mars Volta have been on my list for a while, I just never got round to giving them a proper listen.
Storm Corrosion didn't do that much for me when I listened to them. Maybe time to revisit.
Total change of pace - Lovecraft-inspired Death Metal :

Here's an inside joke nobody but @neph93 will understand
-
I don't listen to this album too much anymore, for some deeply political reasons I am not allowed to discuss here related to the singer. But I am listening to it rn with my fancy noise-canceling earbuds and I have goosebumps. It's like hearing it again for the first time.

^ in case you were wondering, Scald is like Candlemass, Danzig, and Type O Negative had a baby.
