That depends on what you're listening for.  Lots of listeners think there's no emotion there if they themselves aren't getting anything from it.  I've never heard Yes sing about woodland fairies, and they rarely delve into SF (and why is this a bad thing?).

That's got to be an old modular Moog, or maybe even a combo organ, put through a ton of reverb.  It *is* kinda freaky for something so consonant and fanfare-like.

National Health had Amanda Parsons, a light soprano, on their first album.  She was acoompanied by two others on both Hatfield And The North albums.

*Tormato* needs a new mix and a new track sequence.  Maybe change out a couple of songs as well (they had some extras) and remove a few Hott Lixx <tm> from the tracks, since they just threw everything in expecting some of it to be taken out later.

A friend of mine once called them "the English Styx".  I think that fits.  Unfortunately, they spawned dozens of imitators.  I understand the motivation—"streamlined prog for the post-punk '80s"—but most of it just doesn't work that well for me.  Haircuts suck.
