Cygnus....Vismund Cygnus by a whole lot.

I have not enjoyed much, if anything, from their last two albums.

It's hard for me to decide which is my favorite. I'm a fan of all of their stuff. I wasn't initially, but then I saw them at Coachella 2003 coupled with the release of Frances the Mute, I fell in love. Listened to Frances the Mute from start to end while trippin on shrooms. Best. Experience. Ever.

I'd say my favorites would be Viscera Eyes or Miranda that Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore

I can barely pick only one per album, but I'll try...
Eriatarka
Cygnus...all three haha!
Day of the Baphomets
Ilyena...but I think the first 5 songs are all incredible! My wife is ready to break that cd over my head!

my favorite is Roulette Dares from De-Loused in the Comatorium

but L´Via L´Viaquez comes to a very close second, Juan Alderete´s P-Bass w/ miked SVT growl on that song originated a very bad case of GAS on me, it´s the most brutal P-Bass tone i´ve heard in my life (IMHO)

Shrooms rule! Without mushrooms we would still be some dumb species of monkey.
However, I prefer listening to Coil or Shpongle, depending on the dose , while tripping on shrooms.

Mushrooms are the best thing mother earth and her alien friends have ever given to us! I personally think that if everyone had a deep psychedelic experience in their lives the world would be much nicer place to live in...

My favorites from each of their CDs

Deloused: Cicatriz ESP
Frances: Frances the Mute (It wasn't on the disc, but was released later)
Amputechture: Tetragrammaton
Bedlam: Tourniquet Man

Scabdates in its entirety was pretty sick, too.

A terribly difficult question, since it seems to change all the time but my favourites at the moment are Take the veil and Meccamputechture, oh and:

+1000 The first five are some of their best ever, but the rest of bedlam was a bit of a letdown for me

IDK, I thought Agadez, Ouroborous, and Conjugal Burns were great songs.
