I know I wouldn't want to. Obviously you don't do your homework. There is in existance an album- an album so incredible that it's amazeing that it hasn't been given proper notice. It's called "Tales from Topographic Oceans". And just guess who the drummer is. That's right, Alan White. This is the album that has "Ritual" on it. Not as creative? Hardly. Also, the "Relayer" album contained Alan White also. I'm sure you've heard of "The Gates of Delirium". If you listen to these albums, I'm sure you'll see the light.
