By the way, I have to say that anybody who has NOT downloaded the free demo songs from Wobbler's website really should do it now. Don't wait. They may not be up there forever. The songs are 14 and 13 minutes long and are fantastic symphonic heavy prog like Anglagard or Anekdoten.  Extremely recommended!!

Seriously - don't miss these songs.

OK. Thank you very much (though, I'm still waiting for the explanation of point 1, if anyone knows).

Quote Unfortunately I was a little disappointed with the sound, but I'm sure a few more listens will wipe that away


Hmm, I remember that I had the same feeling with the first listening of all the Gabe-era Genesis, VDGG, recently Discipline - Unfolded Like Staircase, and many more albums which are now masterpieces for me. So maybe it's a good sign

Hopefully Wobbler will be a great comeback of beautiful symphonic prog music. These guys, IMHO, have good abilities and potential to do that!

Yah, give it some more spins. It took me about 4 times to get really into it. The first song is a real stunner the more you listen to it.

Funny thing is I am listening to the CD right now and saw this thread. Yes, the CD is very good. If you liked the tracks on the website then you will like the CD. VERY symphonic with a LOT of Mellotron and organ. Very similar musical style to Anglagard though Wobbler have a slightly more modern feel and less flute and guitar.

I don't know the answers to your questions, however, but I would think that the songs on the website were probably written and recorded before the tracks on their debut CD. Those songs are not on their CD but will probably show up on a future release as bonus tracks, an EP or on a DVD.

I've heard these 2 long pieces of their music downloaded from their site and I'm really impressed. I haven't ever heard such good symphonic prog performed by new band before.

Have anyone heard their new album? Is it good?

There are two thing that I don't understand:
1. They was formed in 1999 but released debut album in 2005. So what had they been doing for these six years?
2. Where are these two tracks on Wobbler's site from?
Could anyone explain it?
