 | Seventh Son of a Seventh Son by Iron Maiden
Buy new: £5.38 / Used from: £3.40 An album that have stuck with me through my childhood, to where I am now. An incredible blend of atmospheric keys and heavy metal mastery from the lads.
|
 | Train of Thought by Dream Theater
Buy new: £5.78 / Used from: £3.54 For me, no album reaches the heights of technicallity that "Train of Thought" does. Able to match it with incredible song wizardry, TOT is a 70 minute prog-asm.
|
 | Signify by Porcupine Tree
Buy new: £7.98 / Used from: £7.75 Laden with masterful soundscapes, set perfectly into improvised prog-rock pieces, this album is a must buy for all prog fans. Especially bass players!
|
 | Judgement by Anathema
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £3.77 Atmospheric rock at it's most heartfelt and aggressive. Liverpool band Anathema take the listener through emotion, beauty and darkness, without passing through any new-age, emo rubbish.
|
 | Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Buy new: £6.88 / Used from: £4.00 There is nothing left to say that has not been said before, Wish You Were Here is a "Shining" example of man's ability to create.
|
 | Metropolis Part 2: Scenes From a Memory by Dream Theater
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £2.88 Even more progressive wizardry from NYC's Dream Theater, faster but not as heavy as TOT. "Scenes" takes you through a technically mezmerizing journey of metal, rock and sometimes, pop!
|
 | Vespertine by Bjork
Buy new: £6.68 / Used from: £4.77 Imagine snowflakes licking your shivering body on a frosty winter day. Imagine the warmth coming back to you as the person you love holds you still. Now imagine that captured in music...
|
 | Pornography (Remastered) by The Cure
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £2.95 Imagine the snow melting on your burning corpse. Imagine ice-cold daggers slowly piercing your brain. Now imagine THAT captured in music...
|
 | Flowermouth by No-Man
Buy new: £12.69 Combining Depeche Mode-like pop with ambient soundscapes, Steven Wilson's two piece project with Tim Bowness is parent of the most beautiful gallery of sound known to man, "Flowermouth".
|
 | Brave by Marillion
Buy new: £7.98 / Used from: £6.94 Progressive rock had never, and has never since been so emotional but cold, bleak but joyous, technical but mellow. Brave is an essential for ALL music fans.
