Hello Friends, I am writing in dire curiosity over whether any of you can help me recall the name of a new prog band hailing from the U.K. The album of theirs I'm interested in came out sometime between 07-10 and has a very classic vintage symphonic style ( not in the glass hammer vein but TRULY vintage sounding somewhere between king crimson the moody blues and krautrock / cantebury ) I want to say they might have had the word CRIMSON in their name ( derivative as it sounds ) and one of the tracks on said album may have included the word THANATOS. I remember distinctly the look of the album cover, it was a predominantly red simplistic abstract outlined drawing of a human head in silhouette of profile with what appeared to be wires / cords wrapping around it. I cannot for the life of me recall where this album is in my ITUNES ( if it made it through my shoddy HD wipe at all ) but it was QUITE GOOD and very proto-vintage progressive sounding. Thank You in advance if this lights a bulb above your head for me! Cheers Spencer -------------

Sorry I can't help you ... and I understand that you really want to find this album ... but surely only one topic was required?  Have you tried looking at the top album lists for the years you think the album might have been released? You may see the cover and have your memory jogged.

Diagonal-Diagonal(2008)
One of the best prog albums from 2008 IMO.
Can't people just help out other people without needing to be the center of attention? I mean really. Are some people that insecure/egocentric?
 Just amazing.It's good to see that those posts got deleted. I would be very embarrassed if those were my posts. Be thankful they got deleted.

| The only album that comes to mind with THANATOS in one of the titles is this one: http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=1393" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=1393 |

People already beat me to Diagonal (even though it doesn't quite meet any of the criteria, it's what came to my mind as well).
