Gong - Wingful of Eyes ******************** Gong formed in Paris in 1968 after the Australian Daevid Allen was forced to leave Soft Machine because immigration officers refused his re-entry to Britain with his expired Visa. The original lineup of Gong consisted of Daevid Allen, Gilli Smith, Dider Malherbe and, eventually, drummer Pip Pyle. Since the very first Gong recordings of just Allen and Smith the band have gone through in excess of twenty different members and a silly number of line ups.

Products similar to A Wingful Of Eyes - Gong
The Sane Asylum - Blind Illusion
One of the finest and most interesting thrash performances of the eighties.
Vocals are the weakest aspect, and the band never recorded anything else.
Seventeen Seconds - The Cure
A couple of the songs don't stink... um...
Robert Smith was trying to be clever in his sparse instrumental arrangements and it back-fired!
Sex Reflex - Bile
May have made Krztoff some more money.
Alienates more serious fans.
Sacrifice - Black Widow
Early occult prog, with a fun gimmick if nothing else.
Some experiments are less successful than others, particularly the chanting to Satan.
Faith - The Cure
The Cure's strongest set of songs when released, great arrangements for the most part
Primary and Doubt, while not bad songs, stick out artistically
Demonic Electronic - Bile
The return of the darkness and evil.
Not as varied as previous works.
Copy Machine - Bile
You may know the original songs...
...but these covers are nothing special.
Bleed The Grey Sky Black - Bella Morte
Modern gothic rock that everyone can enjoy, even pretentious bigots like me.
Lighter and poppier songs are disappointing compared to the more experimental offerings.
Bestial - Black Cobra
Highly talented sludge doom from a two-man-band.
Later songs make strange use of silence, which only gets in the way, but can presumably be skipped.
H418ov21.c - Beherit
Each song attempts something different.
Each song is an abominable waste of time.
