Well, I'm late responding to all this...

Name: Something's Always Wrong
Origin: Toad the Wet Sprocket

I sure have a knack for accidentally nominating your favorites, don't I? Did it with Somewhere in Time last topic, too.

Name: The Twyncyn/Trembling Willows
Origin: Pure Reason Revolution

The entire Dark Third album is just bizarre as hell, in a good way. It's one of the most unique listening experiences I've ever found, and I've never come across anything even remotely like it. And this song's kind of a microcosm of that. The latter half of the song where it's just a continuous, perfect duet with ridiculously intricate lyrics isn't something I've ever seen duplicated.

Name: We Forgot We Were Human
Origin: Dirt Poor Robins

DPR legitimately gets better with every release. They're in the midst now of another 3-part story divided between EPs, and if it were all just released as one traditional album it would probably be my runaway album of the year.

If you dig the somewhat theatrical style of WFWWH, check out Welcome to Lady Hell and Maximilian Von Spee from the Raven Locks series. If you just want to hear them doing a more traditional style of straight-up good music, try out Scarecrows or But Never a Key from this new Dead Horse project.

Name: Applause of a Distant Crowd
Origin: VOLA

We Are Thin Air from the same album would be my other VOLA rec. It's probably the one closest in style to this song.

Name: The Mighty Echo
Origin: The Family Crest

You really nailed the overall feel of this song in the writeup. The band is generally very good at creating that whole "floating" sensation because their entire style feels very light and airy without sacrificing complexity and depth. They can be a little hit-or-miss with me because I'm big on lyrics and that can be pretty inconsistent in their writing, but when they land, they really land, and Mighty Echo is definitely their crowning achievement so far.

I had this pegged as my highest finisher from the very beginning. Fun to be proven right, and glad you enjoyed it!
