    Why whatever do you mean about BS on the mp.com forum? I know of no such thing at all....

    Oh yeah definitely. I'm not saying this is good or bad, it's just not
    what I'm interested in. But obviously the forum people over there don't
    mind the amount of noise produced... It's just that people like me (and
    I would guess I'm not alone) would still prefer the old-fashioned
    mailing list.

    On a sidenote: I re-discovered Angra last week. I was (and still am) a
    HUGE fan of Holy Land, which is one of the finest discs ever produced
    IMO, but Fireworks disappointed me. Then with all the band members
    shenanigans I thought that would be the end of them. Out of curiosity I
    bought Rebirth last year, but it didn't do much for me. I gave it
    another spin last week and now I come to realise the disc isn't that
    bad after all. Sounds like a cliche but this on really grew on me the
    last week, and now it's constantly in my G: drive. You guys/gals get
    that sometimes that you only start to like a disc a year or more after
    purchasing it? Makes me start to wonder what other hidden gems I got in
    my CD collection.

    Finally: a small poll maybe (to revive the list a bit): what albums
    have you bought that you were really disappointed with? My (fortunately
    short) list:

    -Timescape: Two worlds
    -Time Machine: Eternity Ends
    -Talamasca: Projection
    -Pain of Salvation: Remedy Lane (before you start flaming: I dig The
    Perfect Element)
    -Explorer's Club: Raising the Mammoth

    There's probably more, but I tend to forget about them...

    NP: Angra - Rebirth
        Requiem - The Arrival
