Decent band. I wouldn't call them Prog.

Colors was an excellent album (even if they cant spell colour ) and I dont mind the vocals at all, though I think they could have made more use of clean vocals.

While I liked Alaska, I think with Colors they've reached a new level and I find this album excellent (and in any other discussion I wouldn't even mention the vocals, but apparently it's an issue here, so I'll just say I don't have any problems with them having listened and loved this kind of music for long and other bands with much more "challenging" vocals).

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Not a big fan of this band. The vocals pretty much prevent me from enjoying it.

Check out my review. |
all I gathered from that is that you dislike the vocals strongly and that you think blues solos are lame

guilty pleasure of mine though those who like Dream Theater might wanna look them up first rather than assuming because there is definitely a difference, especially vocally

I got "Colors" from my friend a couple of months ago, and it took time to grow on me, but now it is one of my favorite albums. I also just got "Alaska" from him, which isn't as good IMO, but still good. I'm really looking forward to seeing them on Prog Nation '08, although I wish they had a longer set .
How does everyone else feel about them?, and Has anyone seen them live? How is their sound? and Is it as good as the studio recording?
Thank you all in advance .
