I don't find insulting Garth Hudson very funny. I was undecided how to rate this album, but you made up my mind for me. Thanks.

PS. When will I live in a world where Canadians get respect?

o i just realized this is clasic albums and not the album club... my bad guys

gonna say 9 because i definitely do love the album, just maybe not to the extreme extent that some ppl do.

i still think i have some growing to do with the fall before i really understand why people love them sooo much, but nonetheless a great project that deserves to be on the classic list.

Didn't mean to be insulting. I know he was loved by his bandmates.


Unfortunately when the best known bands from Canada are Rush and the Guess Who, Canada may have a hard time getting respect in the music world.

On the other hand, they can kick anybody's ass in Hockey and, politically speaking, they have it all over the US so I wouldn't walk around with an inferiority complex.

My personal good Canadian artists list:

Kittie
Kobra and the Lotus
Loreena McKennitt
Lydia Ainsworth
Sarah Slean (although her newest album was bland as hell)
The Agonist (only with the new singer, Vicky - this is important)

Of course, I won't get any respect for any of those picks, but whatever.
I've got too good taste in music to be cool

you better recognize
Yeah I suspected there might be some context worth taking not of there, but simply comparing album to album, in a vacuum, Deceit is a pretty wildly creative album and much more so than the other one.

I'm sure the Fall are very influential - I'm not going to argue against that.

Not really as such, but A Forest is a very cool song.
