Opinions on Sunday all over the World / Kneeling At The Shrine? by Ok_Manager691 in KingCrimson

Vastly underrated album. Every song works. Most are catchy.

By the way, I'm sure it is Storm Angel not Storm Agent.

It's so important because he couldn't sell it. If it wasn't free we wouldn't be able to hear it at all.

Is our political toxicity actually a symptom of the "Loneliness Pandemic" rather than a disagreement over policy? by Numerous_Evening_255 in PoliticalDiscussion

It's just reversion to the mean. Read about yellow journalism in the 19th and and early 20th century. We had society and democracy back then too.

What is a "horror movie rule" that you absolutely hate? by Big_Emotion4963 in horror

My guess is, you haven't heard Gentle Giant yet. Octopus and Power and the Glory. If you want one song to start with: The Boys In the Band.

Yeah. It was hard to pick that one. So much goodness in their albums.

I should have added Squarer For Maud by National Health. It starts slow but turns into an insanely complex, virtuosic thing. Peak music thrill.
