Favorite Galactic Cowboys Album

Listened to At The End Of The Day (my first introduction to them) last night and remembered how much I love that album. Every song has me singing along with it. This gave me the idea to make this poll. Now I must admit, I never heard the album Machine Fish but none of the other releases grab me as much as ATEOTD. Second would be Let It Go followed by the self titled then The Horse That Bud Bought. For some reason, Space In Your Face didn't interest me when I had it and I later traded it off. Maybe some day I'll try it out again.

Check here for some opinions...

Machine Fish was my fave of theirs. it was also the last one i really enjoyed.

Like 'em all, but voted for their first album. It's so unique and
unlike anyone else (despite those who try to say they sound like King's
X).

I knew about the other Cowboys thread, but I felt like turning it into a poll (as a visual gauge).

I have to go with Machine Fish. I also really like their first two records alot. Everything after the Feel The Rage ep didn't grab me as much as the earlier stuff did.

Machine Fish is my fave.Great Groove album.Second would be their self-titled.

Space in your Face! I also like the 1st record and Machine Fish too.

I felt they never topped that first album. It's one of the few albums I consider pretty much perfect.

Had to go with the first album. I remember being so blown away by it when it first came out. Although Machine Fish would be a very close second.

I voted Horse That Bud Bought. It's PROBABLY because it was the first Cowboys album I'd bought in about 5 or 6 years so I immediately just engulfed the whole thing super quickly. I've kinda worked backwards on their stuff. Starting out with Let it Go and now the only ones I still need real copies of are Space In Your Face and the Self Titled cd. I'll buy them soon too, I know that for a fact.

Again I cannot express how much I LOVE this band. DEFINATELY in my top 5 fave bands ever. And more than likely in my top 3. Maybe even number one...I don't know. I've just taken to this band so much over the last few years (I discovered them in 2000...sadly).

But yeah every song of theirs is a winner to me and I usually end up thinking of one of their songs at almost any time. Of course my current listening list tends to pop in my head more immediately, but the Cowboys probably have their songs pop in my head more than ANY of my other favorite bands...them and Megadeth probably.

I LOVE Galactic Cowboys. I hope they get back together at some point. Seeing as how I never got a CHANCE to see them live it'd be nice if they'd do so...even just for me. Haha.

As for them breaking up, I "Blame it on my evil twin."

1.SIYF 10/10
2.S/T 9.75/10
3.MF 9.5/10

Easily one of my fave bands ever! I saw them live with King's X on the Tapehead tour!

I voted for the debut. It's a shame they never released an official live album because none of the studio albums ever completely captured their sound.

The first time I saw them they were the opening act for Overkill on the Horrorscope tour.

I wish I could've seen that gig as I adore both bands! Agreed about a live album. It would have rules to no end! These guys are one of the best live bands I've EVER seen in person, and I've been to many, many concerts!

Voted for Space in Your Face but it's a tough call with me for these guys as I like all their albums.
They were always great live. I saw 'em several times mostly when they were touring with King's X. Now that was always a great show!

Heck yeah, it sure was! Their show that I saw is still one of my Top 10 fave concerts EVER!

The first two are neck and neck, but I voted for Space

I only have the first three albums, and I like em like this:
1- Galactic Cowboys
2 - Machine Fish
3 - Space In Your Face

There, we have something in common, right? Time to have some fun and rejoice in metal always!

There's really only one album I don't like that well, and that's Machine Fish. The music is actually very good, but there's something about the sound levels or something that makes me stress out. I bought that album while I was on my lunch break during the time I was studying for the CPA exam, and maybe I am unconsciously associating that stress with listening to the album. It's unfortunate, 'cause the music is good. Galactic Cowboys put out a whole mess of great albums, though, didn't they?
