hi this is where i'm gonna be posting reviews, albums, ratings, and recommendations for music stuff so we dont have to be normal parenthesis scrubs

i'm gonna start the thread by listing some of my favorite albums of all time

1. ISIS - Panopticon



atmospheric post metal act from boston, ISIS, otherwise known as the single most consistent band to ever do it.

2. Boris - Flood



going from the most consistent band to the most consistent band boris, changing their sound with almost every record they produce they were bound to make a masterpiece eventually, landing on the trance like drone album Flood.

3. The Mars Volta - Frances the Mute



an absolute trip of story telling, frances the mute is the single greatest prog rock album to hit ears.
