Nice one!!! That and Nighttime Birds are my favorite Gathering albums.

They are great, but I like How To Measure A Planet? most. Yes, it's extremely mellow, but so damn melodic and haunting.

Majke - Život uživo
Majke - Vrijeme je da se krene
Majke - Razum i bezumlje
Dream Theater - Octavarium

Glad to hear Manifest is still around. I used to shop there back in 2000 when I lived in Charlotte.

The Cult - Choice Of Weapon

Amazon download because it's $4 cheaper than the cheapest CD rate. I think so far this year I've downloaded about 75% as many albums as I've purchased on CD. I guess this dinosaur is finally starting to go digital.

It's now under the FYE umbrella, but still basically the same store. I've been a loyal Manifest customer going back to the original store in Columbia 25 yrs ago.

CD:

The Michael Schenker Group - The Chrysalis Years (1980 - 1984) - This is a 5 disc boxset.

Vinyl:

Ram - Under The Scythe 7"

Again? Man, that album is a frickin' classic!

dude seriously Manifest is still around? Are we sure that can be the same store if it's owned by FYE now.... because the Manifest I went to had everything..literally everything. You couldn't leave without 5+ CD's. FYE has..................sometimes a lot of stuff....................like 1/10 of their stores...and the dumbest employees ever.

Meh. I have about the first 4 Gathering albums and I can't remember a damn thing about any of them including Mandylion. Too proggy for me I think.

You're loss was my gain. Though it's been several years, thanks again for selling me How To Measure A Planet? for a good price. I've gotten my money's worth tenfold.

I don't think Mandylion or Nighttime Birds are proggy at all. They definitely began heading that way on Nighttime Birds, but just a bit. They went full-on experimental with the next one, How To Measure A Planet? And it's brilliant, if you ask me. I've loved everything they've done, but there's some really special about those first two with Anneke on vocals.

It's still around. FYE bought them out a few years back. But they still have a lot of cool things there.

The only way I knew it was part of FYE is because that's who issues the gift cards. They still have everything.

My points at that store accumulated enough for me to get two of those used CDs for free.

Is that Testament disc a live album?
