Hey people, I'm Fredde!

I've made some music in the past, mostly medleys and video game covers on youtube!
(I think this new medley based on classical music is pretty cool, personally: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aG9TqoNAO0)

But I'm really a big prog rock fan, and I've visited progarchives regularly to check out new releases and stuff. And yesterday I released my first real prog rock album, and I'm very happy with how it turned out! But now I need to find some prog rock audience who can enjoy it! :D


I'd describe it as quite melodic and up-lifting, with LOTS of changes and odd time signatures, even compared to the average prog.
You can listen to the whole thing here if you're interested:

Oh, and the info on the PA page (http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=45503) is slightly inaccurate. If someone could fix that, I'd be grateful. Proper release date is July 14, and final tracklisting can be found above.

Thanks a lot!

I'm quite impressed. The instrumentation - mainly the drums, doesn't sound fake or mechanical, not entirely my listening taste but the first song at least sounds better than most neo-prog i've heard recently. 

Well done.

Crushed like a rose in the riverflow.
