Just an idea!!!

[Rick and Roll]

The Poundhound I'm somewhat familiar with. I also enjoy the funk (also in prior posts) - it's just that I think KX later records lack
an edge - Dogman was the last one that I thought was consistent. The others have gaps, and Manic's got a muffled sound to it. Sort of like Vapor Trails!

I really don't think that as a whole, any one record is more funky or prog (or whatever the term-du-jour may be) than any other of their records. There are certainly songs with elements of each. "Sometimes" off the first and some off of "Manic" are funky. "Pleiades" and "She's Gone Away" are proggy.

The difference I see is a lessening of Ty's influence in the band. He sems to balance out Doug, who goes for more simplistic sounds. If I had to choose, though, I rather hear Doug. He just can't seem to finish a song.

That being said, I own them all. By no means do I dislike any of their stuff. They are still one of my favorite bands. They just set the bar too damn high.

And a 17-minute live "Vegetable" was a special highlight of mine.

Thanks for the heads up! And nice mathematical formula!
