Thanks Shawn. I was like a kid in a candy store. Too much delicious looking music. That spending spree should end our nation's depression.  -------------

oooh.
Can someone suggest me a top 5 albums to get from that list. Perhaps something new and exciting?
I know Sylvan and am thinking about getting one or two from them...Maybe Amaran's Plight too, but I dunno most of the rest.
I've been kinda out of the new prog bands loop for awhile.... ------------- http://soundcloud.com/drewagler" rel="nofollow - My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want! |

one of my personal favorites is Invisigoth, very unique stuff. Really depends on your tastes though, the Steve Walsh solo album is fantastic. If you can throw out some genres or bands that you're looking towards I can probably make some suggestions, there are audio samples on each page as well. Oh, another really fresh one is Seven Steps to the Green Door.

I liked the Echoes and Aquaria samples a lot.
I'm really into a lot of stuff--Neo, Symph, Metal, Avant. I'd actually like something unlike Sylvan, as I find a lot of Neo to be hit or miss, much as I love it, and it's iffy to impulse buy something like that. If there's anything intensely compelling, though, I'd be willing to listen. ------------- http://soundcloud.com/drewagler" rel="nofollow - My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want! |

check out the samples for Invisigoth and Seven Steps then, given what you described, I think you would like the freshness of it. Votum and Sandstone might also appeal, and this new Dead heroes Club is getting a lot of positive reaction. Oh, Jupiter Society, big, heavy, epic. If you're interested in any of the albums I also played on, there is Frameshift "Unweaving the Rainbow", Amaran's Plight, Project Creation "Dawn on Pyther", Factory of Dreams "A Strange Utopia", and I contributed to Frameshift "An Absense of Empathy" and Henning Pauly "Credit Where Credit is Due" :) ------------- Best Regards, Shawn Gordon President ProgRock Records www.progrockrecords.com www.mindawn.com |

Personally I'd recommend Jupiter Society and Seven Steps to the Green Door - quality acts through and through in my opinion. Of the artists mentioned those would have ben my top picks. If Zen Rock and Roll and Aaron English should still be available those are others I'd give the thumbs up. The former charming in a vintage Genesis sort of way, the latter a neat blend of world music and rock with a few jazzy touches with a Peter Gabriel atmosphere to it. ------------- Websites I work with: http://www.progressor.net http://www.houseofprog.com My profile on Mixcloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/haukevind/ |

I got the albums by Aquaria and Echoes, as well as the Seven Step album, based largely on your review Windhawk. ------------- http://soundcloud.com/drewagler" rel="nofollow - My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want! |

Hope you'll enjoy that one then - I know I did. Would be interesting to know how accurate you find my description after giving it a couple of spins :-) ------------- Websites I work with: http://www.progressor.net http://www.houseofprog.com My profile on Mixcloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/haukevind/ |
