Love Presence. One of my favorite Zeppelin albums.

It's actually my first foray into the world of Zeppelin besides the Mothership comp from a few years ago.   

I've spun it a few times and I can say I was definitely missing out.

Definitely get the rest. They're all good. I'd go ahead and grab IV next. My very favorite is III, but there's a lot of acoustic stuff on it. Physical Graffitti has some Presence-type stuff on it, but a lot of variety, as well.

I'll definitely be looking into them more. I always kinda wrote them off as a "hits" band, even though I'm such a fan of bands like them (Sabbath, Budgie, Purple, etc).

The only cd I got was Noctum's Final Sacrifice.

The blackest gift of all..


NOOOTHINGGGGGGG

Got no music

I gave my lady a list of CD's I wanted like the new Running Wild and Vicious Rumors, but instead she got me a vinyl copy of Black Crowes with Jimmy Page at The Greek. No complaining; I've been wanting it for some time now, and it's amazing. She also got me the second Walking Dead compendium, which I've also been wanting for a while, so she did great even though no metal was involved.

Aside from one early pre-Christmas blu-ray I didn't receive any new music this year either. No biggie, I have more pressing needs for my finances right now than buying more music I don't have time to listen to.

Two more CDs with my other Best Buy gift card...

Stryper - No More Hell to Pay

Ugly Kid Joe - Stairway to Hell

used some Christmas money to pick up:

Opeth - Orchid (remaster)
Genesis - A Trick of the Tail (remaster)
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
Nirvana - Incesticide
Machine Head - Burn My Eyes
Evergrey - Recreation Day
Tesseract - Altered State
Lacuna Coil - In A Reverie
Lacuna Coil - Comalies
Zao - (the grammatically incorrect) Liberate Te Ex Inferis
Zao - The Splinter Shards the Birth of Separation
Porcupine Tree - Stars Die
Porcupine Tree - Metanoia

A pretty good haul. I have now finished my Zeppelin collection and my Porcupine Tree collection (except for the new release of Yellow Hedgerow Dreamscape). I'll probably pick up the other Tesseract cd as well, and maybe some Steven Wilson solo cds

Comalies is a good album
