Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

Yes, that's about as close as you can get without being absolutely spot on. Smile

I guess I get to use this picture again, from the last time this question (or one similar) was asked. Since I posted this, I have listened to Distance Over Time, but like Paul, have not yet listened to the latest.



1. The Astonishing
2. Six Degrees
3. Awake
4. Falling Into Infinity
5. Dramatic Turn

My absolute favourite DT studio release, though, is A Change of Seasons. I realise the band consider it an ep, but if Paul counts it as an album, then knock off Dramatic Turn from my list, and move everything else down one rung to accommodate Seasons! 😜





Hi Nick, why have you not listened to WDADU? It’s a wonderful album in my opinion and well worth checking out!😊

^ I’ve just never got around to it - simple as that. I’ve always intended to listen to it, but there’s always been something else that has taken “priority”. Given James’s vocals are much of what I like about the band, and they would be absent, I guess that has kept the album further down my “to listen to” list than would otherwise be the case.

The vocals are great! Sounds like a different band, but in a good way.
