What's a good Circle (Fin) album to get? (1 Viewer)

[cletus_buckley]

Circle put out alot of records, sometimes two in one year, so Im not to sure where to start. Any suggestions?

 

[nEiLo]

Prospekt

[ratmonkey]

Katapult is the shizzle.

 

[daydream_nation]

the one with the iron maiden tune

 

[ratmonkey]

The one?

 

[I Bleed Black]

I quite like Forest and Empire, if you're looking for the more ambient stuff Miljard is excellent.

 

[BonsaiSuperstar]

the one with the iron maiden tune

ah - that's the one with the Bon Jovi song on it?

 

[daydream_nation]

ah - that's the one with the Bon Jovi song on it?

choon bai, choon

 

[Diumraid]

Meronia; Sunrise; Prospekt; Tulikoira; Earthworm (EP); Andexelt
All got the motorik metal going on
I don't dig the more airy stuff and some of the records sound like a bit of a joke at the listeners' expense.

 

[magnetize]

prospekt, amazing

 

[righteous harmony]

those are my faves (at the moment)
also the pharaoh overlord stuff...

Tulikoria is great .... motorik metal is the perfect description .... with a bit of Sisters of Mercy vocals thrown in.

 

[cletus_buckley]

Thanks guys, for starters Ill see if I can get a hold of any of these three so; Prospekt, Katapult and Tulikoria.

 

[tombstome]

the one with the iron maiden tune

You are being very bold DN.
That would be Hollywood...its a cracker.
Meronia & Taantumus are hitting the spot last few weeks but bigup to Katapult.
Particularly for 'Four points of the compass' & 'Fish Reflection'

 

[Dktr. Faustus]

Alotus would be a great one to start with. Older album but they still play some of that album and it's always good to go back to. Other old and solid ones:
Taantumus
Prospekt
Meronia

Of the newer ones i'd go for Forest for dark folky psych, Miljard for piano ambient, Panic for their take on 80s hc/punk AND tangerine dream, Tulikoira is their "classic NWOFHM" album, Tyrant is really good sprawling psych.

I definitely recommend getting into Motospandex as well. Truly classic and epic NWOFHM
