Ultimate Album Side

[mloanna]

I think it safe to say QUEENSRYCHE is classic.

 

[Ascension]

I'm aware of that, it close enough to the 80's though. That still doesn't answer my question. Thankfully VenomGA clarified the post.

Aahh ok...well...good to see you join the rest of us.

Impossible task but these come to mind quickly:

Yep, anything like that is music to my ears! I always find
myself going back to it...

Children of the Sun is such a badass song.

Side 1 of that album is really quite good, and all the songs interleave with the 'aliens arriving' theme. Woah, a concept album! Well, half of one.......

Side 2 is awful. Terrible. Dreck. Go figure.
