Is it really necessary to be such a dick? Really.
And know absolutely nothing about music.
Pompous ass. His post was an OPINION, as are all statements on this board.

: The Hold Your Fire thread got me thinking
: about other instances where my ratings of
: two adjacent albums differ by 3 points or
: more.
:
: Here goes:
:
: Genesis: Selling England by the Pound 14
: The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway 11 (-3
: points)
:
: King Crimson: In the Wake of Poseidon 12
: Lizard 7 (-5 points)
:
: Islands 9
: Larks' Tongues in Aspic 12 (+3 points)
:
: Pink Floyd: The Final Cut 13
: A Momentary Lapse of Reason 9 (-4 points)
:
: Roxy Music: Siren 11
: Manifesto 6 (-5 points)
:
: Rush: Fly by Night 11
: Caress of Steel 8 (-3 points)
: 2112 12 (+4 points)
:
: Power Windows 12
: Hold Your Fire 7 (-5 points)
:
: Yes: Time and a Word 11
: The Yes Album 14 (+3 points)
:
: Close to the Edge 15
: Tales from Topographic Oceans 10 (-5
: points)
:
: Going for the One 13
: Tormato 8 (-5 points)
: Drama 11 (+3 points)
:
: 90125 12
: Big Generator 9 (-3 points)
:
: Open Your Eyes 9
: The Ladder 12 (+3 points)

: Several things interest me here:
:
: (a) All of these are from the discographies
: of prog bands - not a single exception.
: (b) Where the quality drops by 3 points or
: more, the second album is, very often, a
: failed attempt at remaking the first.
: (c) The fact that the Yes discography is all
: over the place cannot be blamed on their
: erratic line-up, since GFTO and Tormato
: were made by the same five guys, as were
: 90125 and BG .
