I find it impossible to narrow it down to just three bands.

I know that the corniness is cringe inducing at times (especially the lyrics) but I'm really enjoying this album more and more with each listen.

Here's a link to a great review of "The Astonishing" by Dave Cooper...

"Hunky Dory" was the high point for me.

I bought "A Madness of Angels" by Kate Griffin yesterday. I'm kind of enjoying it so far but she does tend to get carried away with over-description sometimes.

I have it and I'm loving it. Somehow the songs seem even more powerful since his passing.

I've pre-ordered Bowie's "Blackstar". It should Be out this Friday.

I don't own "Rocks" and haven't heard it since the early 1980s so I had to go with "Toys in the Attic".
-
So far the only gig that I have a ticket for is The Cure playing Manchester in November... It's going to be a long wait.

Gaiman's "American Gods".

'rillion for me. Up the underdog!

I never really listened to Taste. I got into Rory later, with "Deuce", "Against The Grain" & "Calling Card" being my top three albums.

I'm very fond of Vangelis's Blade Runner soundtrack.

Almost finished "Thicker Than Water" by Mike Carey and about to start on his next Felix Castor novel "Naming The Beasts".

"Molok" by Gazpacho. I wasn't quite sure what to make of it on my first listen. It seems quite bleak and minimal at first (apart from "Bela Kiss" which features a manic accordian frenzy) but the more I played it the more layers revealed themselves. I think that this album will appear in my annual top 10 when the year is done.

PS3: Assassins' Creed IV - Black Flag
PC: Oolite

I refuse to take part in the poll as "Animals" (like all floyd albums) needs to be listened to as a whole.

"TAKE HEED! People of the Great Northern Empire of the Americas, all of the Realm, as far as this message will be carried! I am Arhys, Son of Marhys, one of three remaining heirs to the displaced, forgotten, and forbidden Legion Of Sorrowful Song. I contact you from the fair and just village of Ravenskill, far from the Emperor's Palace, in the outer edges of the Realm, nestled on Endless Isleland. By means almost indescribable, we have biohacked the receivers implanted into the flesh so many generations ago, jamming the cacophonous lull of the NOMACS for however much longer our primitive tech will abide.
We are a simple people, like most of you. Our hearts beat, our skin cracks, our bones grow tired, like all of you, even the nobility, even those who set themselves above us behind the tallest of walls and heaviest of armaments, as they are as empty as us. BUT LO, of late, Ravenskill is energized by talk of a Chosen One, possessed of a forbidden sound, a stirring melody almost impossible to comprehend. You must've heard tale of this Chosen One, a humble servant with the innate ability to break the shackles of the mind and heart we must've forgotten how to perceive. This Chosen One's very existence portends not the doom of which our Emperor warns, but rather, is a harbinger of untold possibilities. Could you dream of finding power beyond powerlessness? Could it be that very idea is a lie, sold to us by those who benefit most from our endless struggle?
My brothers and sisters across the Realm, I send this message to spread word that a Rebellion is rising in Ravenskill, to bring glad tidings that even as the Chosen One has been drafted by the fates, I have been drafted by the people to be your Commander. I am here to tell you that not only is this Chosen One real, and not a fiction as the Emperor’s messengers insist, but this Chosen One is, in fact, my blood, and my brother. Seek the Songs for yourselves. There is true freedom beyond what we’ve been taught. There is more than the endless drone of the NOMACS. I have seen and moreover, I have heard. I am but a messenger of the Chosen, a soldier of his light, a commander of rebellion. He, the Chosen One, is the conductor, of a force once thought lost, a force unrivaled by swords, steel, or even fire, wind, and water. TAKE HEED and PREPARE!"[/background]
...What a load of juvenile nonsense!

I bought the new Clutch album "Psychic Warfare" last weekend. It's awesome... possibly their best release since "Blast Tyrant".
