    Hey Epotty, Great Review! Please review Diamond Jubilee by Cindy Lee next. Or get Anthony to. I remember him saying a while ago that Cindy Lee's album What's Tonight to Eternity was very odd, perhaps too odd to come garner any conclusive opinion. Diamond Jubilee takes these previous characteristics and really develops them to be just as out there and weird, but adds much more consistency and creates a way less abrasive listen. It's got the challenge, but even more reward. Please give it some thought I believe there is something really special about this album.

    Anthony, I know this might not be something you are into, but I've just got to ask... If you ever do any more reviews of older records, can you PLEASE do a review of _Metal Fatigue_ by Allan Holdsworth? Or just _anything_ by Allan Holdsworth really. Maybe even _Sand,_ _Atavachron,_ or _The Sixteen Men of Tain._ It's some of the most interesting and original music ever conceived and practically nobody is aware of him. He was an absolute musical genius with unwavering artistic integrity. He knew exactly what he wanted to do and refused to sell out. He influenced countless legendary musicians, with even Eddie Van Halen calling him "the best." Man, it would be awesome to see Allan get more exposure to a larger crowd.

    Aside from the guest reviewer. I really hope this review inadvertently gave Apathy a lot of Clout. I have been listening to him since the early 2000s.
    UNDERRATED GOAT 🙏🙌

    Something's... Different... I can't help but look at the yellow flannel even though everything down to song description is exactly the same. Hm... It sounds interesting, I'll listen to it.

    TheNeedleDrop should TOTALLY BE A MUTLI-REVIEWER channel. it has the perfect name and video style. Fantano could still contribute for the BIG albums whever he chooses and still have his Fantano channel and TNDStreams.
