    \n
  1. Boiled in Lead, “Blackened Page”<\/b>: An interestingly mysterious song, written by one of my favorite fiction writers, the brilliant Steven Brust.<\/li>\n
  2. J.S. Bach, “Cantata #77”<\/b>: Bach’s Cantata’s are some of the finest pieces of music ever written. Amazing.<\/li>\n
  3. Mandelbrot Set, “And the Rockets Red Glare”<\/b>: very good post-rock.<\/li>\n
  4. Yes, “Going for the One”<\/b>: One of my all-time favorite Yes songs. Great stuff.<\/li>\n
  5. Pink Floyd, “Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun”<\/b>: a live recording of some brilliant Syd Barrett material from Pink Floyd’s psychedelic era.<\/li>\n
  6. The Flower Kings, “Black and White”<\/b>: As I’ve said in past FRTs, the Flower Kings are pretty much the<\/em> best of the neo-progressive bands. This is a relatively short track for the King, being only about 8 minutes long. Typical FK gold.<\/li>\n
  7. Elegant Simplicity, “Illuminated Heartbeat”<\/b>: Incredibly dull, repetitive, awful instrumental track. Elegant Simplicity did an amazing
    \nalbum called “Architect of Light”, which I loved. So I rushed out to get more of their stuff – and met with profound disappointment. This is an awful<\/em> album – track after track of totally dull repetitive dreck.<\/li>\n
  8. Solstice Coil, “Brilliance”<\/b>: another small independent neo-progressive band that I found through Bitmunk. I’ve had this album for less than 24 hours, so I haven’t formed a firm opinion about it yet. It’s interesting stuff, with some moments of brilliance.<\/li>\n
  9. King Crimson, “Starless”<\/b>: old King Crimson, from the “Red” album. This is amazing music.<\/li>\n
  10. Sigur Rós, “Hafsól”<\/b>: A track off the latest album by the Icelandic post-rock ensemble. Pretty typical of Sigur Rós sound; perhaps a bit on the harker side than average, but very distinctively their sound. A great track from a great album.<\/li>\n
