By the way, MW, thanks for the IQ cd.
Though is it just me or do they seem a bit alternativish as well?

Maybe a little, although their style is suprisingly old-school for a modern prog band.

I'd certainly say so for the first and third track.

Incidentally, this seems to have a reverse Yes effect. The more I listen to IQ, the less I seem to like it. Wrong side of Weird....

One may call it a "No" effect?

Well, I gotta admit, I really bought the album mostly for the first track, but I haven't really gotten a chance to give it a really thorough listen. I've heard it all the way through several times, but not quite enough. |

I believe I mentioned sometime before I flew back that I wanted a copy of that album.
I'm hungry for prog, Musical. A hunger that hurts deep, deep down in my guts. Prog.
Must have.
Prog.

You've been warned.

I've heard it all the way through several times, but not quite enough. Well, maybe you can appreciate the overall album a little more than I can. I just like the first part of the first song especially, and I think everything else is ok. |

Hey, MW, happen to have the lyrics for Wrong Side of Weird from IQ?

The Wrong Side Of Weird
A sudden unpredictable sky contains the dawn
Seconds in an hour counting down before the day is born
Long enough in the grave to be sustained
Science, or belief, reminders of a time we can't regain
Have all the idle dreamers awoken from their dreams
To find their not alone?
Nothing now is really as it seems
This would always arrive somehow
Problem left unsolved, radiating in the here and now
And in my memory
Only just begun to understand the reasons why
A one in ten degree
Alternate between the faithful and the fearless
If all the riches and ransoms coalesced
As one were intertwined
You would be the brightest I possess
If all the gold and the silver came combined
You would still define the colours I imagine in my mind
And in my memory
Under the same moon, lighted on a lunar sea
A one in ten degree
Alternate between the faithful and the fearless
I can't remember, can't even be him
And chances are slim that I'm found
No finer substance, no final demand
I'm tired and know no bounds
Thought that I was pulling through
Though I never had a chance of winning at all
Caught between the heard and the seen
Something out of quarantine beginning to call
In silence I'm drowning
I'm spinning around and round
Oblivion lies unrevealed
More than flesh and bone can bear together to feel
In silence I'm sinking
I don't think I'll make it down
Riding the meltdown, right in the fallout
And I turn to the fire when I'm spurned
Send out the thing that is driving me crazy
I can douse it and leave it to burn
Daylight dissolving, crawling miasma
On a spellbound and desolate prayer
Somebody somewhere stop me before
I rip away all the soul they've repaired
Time already grows heavy, gravity won't hold steady
Pole people cry for their lives passing by darkly
This belongs to you for he would have loved you as I do
Life as we feared on the wrong side of weird
binds us two
And in my memory
Only just begun to understand the reasons why
A one in ten degree
Alternate between the faithful and the fearless
Where are you now? Who are you now?
I can't go there
Thought that I was pulling through
Though I never had a chance of winning at all
Caught between the heard and the seen
Something out of quarantine beginning to call
Riding the meltdown, right in the fallout
And I turn to the fire when I'm spurned
Send out the thing that is driving me crazy
I can douse it and leave it to burn
Once every lifetime shadows are lifted
And the daylight disperses the dark
Want to be sure that all I've endured is put away
But where do I start?

What's with this summer? Already, I bought Syd Barrett's first post-breakdown solo album while finishing a book detailing a man's reflection on his slippage into insanity. Just a week before that, I was having a Daniel Johnston phase (also quite disturbed) and I know look forward to renting the documentary on him that is in small theaters now.
And you guys talk about a song called "Wrong Side of Wierd."
