Well, I was hoping for some varied lists. A little bit of a prog, a little indie, some classic, you know?

Nice list, I'm going to try to compliment that with some stuff from the other end of the spectrum. Wish it was a top 25. I'll probably do that anyway.

Not in any particular order
  • Tool - Lateralus
  • Tomahawk - Tomahawk
  • Beck - Guero
  • Boud Deun - Astronomy Made Easy
  • Buckethead - Shadows Between the Sky
  • Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains - The Big Eyeball in the Sky
  • Dream Machine - The Castle of a Thousand Universes
  • Stone Oak Cosmonaut - Out of Orbit
  • Van der Graaf Generator - H to He, Who Am the Only One
  • Rush - Test For Echo

It's painful to choose ten. That's why I'll sneak another ten in down the line.

Not heard any of these, although I am not a big Rush fan.

If we ever go on a long road trip together, you can choose the tunes.
