What angers Earle is the mythology of the Wasted Troubadour (the Hardcore Troubadour of the second track, even), the romanticising of self-destruction.

Waiting For The Floods - Armoury Show
Enjoyable post-punk and proto-gothic, and other terms I'm clearly making up. Lacks individuality.

Speed Of Sound - Anvil
Entertaining classic metal with doom-style guitars. The lyrics.

Eat Me, Drink Me - Marilyn Manson
Powerful Gothic Metal, Manson At His Best None

Beyond The Dark - Ancara
Nice atmosphere and high production values. Far too short, lacking in intensity and overly ballad-based.

Army Of Anyone - Army of Anyone
Reasonable enough modern rock. Doesn't stand out.

Animal - Animosity
Competent technical death metal that doesn't show off. Lacks individuality.

Android Domena - Ars Nova
Talented old-school prog. Confused intentions.

All Together Now - Argent
Mix of styles, as long as you're fond of organ rock. Inconsistent.

A Diamond For Disease - Arsis
Title song is a brilliant long death metal piece. Other half is essentially filler.

6 6 6 - Aphrodite's Child
Innovative and highly imaginative early prog classic. Descends into a shambles at points.
