Ron Jarzombek, Solitarily Speaking of Theoretical Confinement -- that's some technical metal right there. Ridiculous number of tracks, though. Found while googling "(odd OR unusual OR unorthodox) time-signatures", lulz. Sort of in the same vein as Zero Hour.
The Eternal, Under a New Sun -- "goth prog"...not proggy enough for me. Needs more unusual time signatures. Or something.
EDIT: That said, there are several tracks on here that I am really enjoying -- old school -- "Collapse", "Despondency" are two of them.
Seefeel -- 15 years later, and they pick up where they left off, more or less. Bliss.
You think they could have come up with a name for an album in that time, but noooo...
Exactly, I can't imagine he found a process to convert normal speaker imaging to binaural, then produce that from speakers.
And I also agree about the earlier point about narrow sweet spot -- I bet it's painfully small.
Also: Torpedo -- well put.
That's too bad about Northern Light & Sound, I did get my SRH840's from them. $140 isn't bad, though, it's far better than the second closest price I remember at the time ($200-ish).
