Can anyone second Area as essential to pick up? I am not a prog freak, but I do appreciate drawing on lots of music, I never listen to lyrics either. Just wondering if I should drop the 40+ bucks on this box set.
While I can't remember anything about the Area CDs I've heard, the singer, Demetrio Stratos was scary-wonderful -- he makes Mike Patton sound limited and conservative. His solo albums were great, and the Area stuff might well be worth it if only for his work.
