I AM ADMIN. I DO WHAT I WANT.

i sense a mutiny.

(restricted to one song per artist to avoid too much wizard)

too hard to put them in order, but here they are:

- return trip - electric wizard (10:03) ..although it could just have easily been dopethrone.
- spaceship landing - kyuss (34:04 is the length of the entire track, but the song itself fades out at around 11:15)
- abandoned language - dälek (10:13)
- dopesmoker - sleep (63:32)
- cicatrez esp - the mars volta (12:29)

dopesmoker pisses on all them just for the pure length of it!

Top choice.

maybe the version (I Know your your Fucking Someone Else) off Origin of the Faeces is better....certainly more comedy value.

Prelude to Agony is also boss

Overall, I do prefer OOTF to S, D & H. This is probably because of the two excellent covers on the CD, though. Where you goin' with that axe in your hand?

I'm in the mood for love, simply because your near me....
