Get the ****ing thing AWAY from me!
Anyway, I've suffered through that already. This is for albums I haven't heard, remember?

Whew I'm glad you liked that one even though it wasn't my rec that album is an absolute masterpiece and I'm suprised you didn't care for all the spoken word samples to me they add a nice contrast to some of the more atmospheric epic parts. And the old guy talking about the beach is suppose to be a metaphor for the collapse of society.

It's interesting that you seem to dislike spoken word snippets and the like. I know they're not music per-se, but in the wider context of the album they generally add a lot.

I don't really hate spoken word (I loved Shatner's album); I just don't care for it on its own. After all, it's in DSOTM, Marillion's "Forgotten sons" (shut up Frown!) and of course a lot of Waits material (I said....) so no, I don't hate it. But it has to engender the right feeling in me, and often taped conversations, audio extracts and so on don't do it. Not saying they never do, but sometimes they just don't feel right.

Not that it matters, but I don't think so. I have three True Love albums so far: one from you, one from bob and one from DWV...?
