Today marks 20 years since the release of one of my favorite albums (Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space by Spiritualized)

If you have a free 70 minutes, you should listen to it.

This is my signature, there are many others like it, but this one is mine.
If you take 110% of what I say seriously then you're gonna have a bad time.

I've never played Skyrim, but I hope it's a good fit!

yyeeaaaahhhh I knew that would be a tough sell.

Give it 3 tracks, then decide if it's worth it.

also 20 years, man. I wanted to buy their anniversary edition, but I didn't have the money :(

I'd say OKC is also one of my favorites because I love it so much, but it's not even in my top 3 Radiohead albums anymore so I don't think it'd be accurate.

Well, this album certainly gave Skyrim a more...contemporary feel. The mood down there in Kilkreath catacombs was as smooth as butter.

Wikipedia says they're "space rock". Which is super-unhelpful.

Sooo, looking up "space rock"... "Space rock is a rock music genre characterized by loose and lengthy song structures centered on instrumental textures that produce a hypnotic, otherwordly sound. It may feature reverberation-laden guitars, minimal drumming, languid vocals, and references to drug use. The term was initially used to describe the style of early 1970s progressive rock bands such as Hawkwind and Pink Floyd who explored a "cosmic" sound. However, it now refers to a "new generation of alternative/indie bands" drawing on psychedelic rock, ambient music, experimental/avant-garde music, krautrock, classical minimalism, and noise pop."

"Spiritualized's sound has been labeled as space rock, neo-psychedelia, art rock, experimental rock, and garage rock."

Oh shit no. It's like everything I hate about the 70s had a baby.
