Well, the audio samples are there waiting for you to try them out ... tell me/us what you think about them after several listens ...

I listened to them, and they're quite great!

Ordered Be and Perfect Element, both new and both for $23

Way better than DT.
 More emotional, more tasteful, more diverse, better singer, better songs. That's why they're better in my book.

So, it's apparent that royalty is still without a sense of sarcasm. Y'know, being the King of Loss and all. Excuse my childish silliness, but I'll never let go of my sense of wonder.

I apologize - King of Loss - if I seemed too pretentious. Just give me your blessing and I can go on.

Peace & take care

Its ok, I was being jealous and its ok, I should feel good for you.

Perfect Element is difficult to start with ... if you're into metal, I'd recommend Concrete Lake, if not, you should try Remedy Lane. Both are VERY different from Perfect Element.

Remedy Lane is a more likely destination ...  ... but by God, there are a few 100 bands ahead in the list, now that I've already tried PoS ...

I've gone for DT on this thread...but only just.  If PoS had a longer back catalogue containing RL parts 2 & 3, then it may be slightly different.

I have my hopes for Perfect Element Pt. 2 ...

ooooh so do I!

I've heard them, but their music didn't make me feel happy (or unhappy), just indifferent.

I'm fine with that, but I'm interested in your opinion on the samples:

Maybe you can just listen to this particular sample and tell me what you think about it, from your perspective as someone who doesn't like metal.
