You know, you're about the only person I've ever talked to who preferred the GUP and
later stuff to the 2112-ish period. I really like GUP and Power Windows, but Hold
Your Fire and Presto I didn't dig that much. Vapor Trail's pretty good though.
I was much more into their albums from 2112 through Signals. I guess I'm just an
arena rock kind of guy at heart. :)
