The Rainbow is one of the best songs ever yea

Going through their whole discog from beginning to end, especially if you haven't heard most or all of it before, is quite an experience. Probably the biggest musical rise in quality of any band haha

This disc can be hard to swallow on 1st listen, one surely needs multiple plays to begin to understand it. I love Rainbow, and the eerie choir in I Believe in You both haunts and thrills me. Really the first three are just incredible together.



What is most fun after getting a handle on SoE is to go back and re-listen to TCoS. To me it's so thrilling to listen to all of the hints of what's to come on Spirit. This band had a really interesting progression over a short amount of time. The caterpillar surely became the butterfly. Godspeed, Mark.

My favourite three tracks are 1, 4, and 5, so that makes Side B stronger imo
