Alex, Have you heard The Fifth Season? It appears that all of their songs from their album Stronger,Perfect are streaming on their PA page. It seems that like Opeth, they enjoy the presence of Cookie Monster on vocals. Something that you might want to check out? http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=2999

Oooh, that does sound intriguing.

Thanks! I'm surprised it only has 2 ratings and 0 reviews.

An impressionist painting of a tennis ball with huge teeth with a comet tail heading for some object of vital importance would make a great cover

That sounds trippy... but totally awesome. LOL

Since you like tennis and you are making arty noise, you should take a picture of a tennis court with tennis balls and tennis rackets and then you could name one of your albums "balls and rackets" or some such thing. i.e. noise = racket. Or since you are going for weird and obscure you can take the picture of the tennis court with the ball out of bounds and call the album "Outside the Lines". Or you could be really smart and just ignore me.

I'll consider it. Those puns are hilarious.

If I do end up using one, I'd definitely let you know and ask first.

thanks for the metaphysics link btw Wink

i'll burn it tonight. cover really sucks tho...

Haha, you're welcome.

I like the cover personally, but thanks for telling me! Tongue

Feedback is always appreciated.

it' way too amateurish and silly, try something more artsy and dark... Zorn is really good at picking good artwork for freak music Wink

I need to get a good dark cover for our 2nd album, since I think it's more downright scary than the 1st. Not sure what I want to do with that yet, however. That's the only thing I have to figure out in the next month or two; the music is absolutely finished.

something like

or

http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t16/ulkulk/10Hate-color.jpg

or

http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t16/ulkulk/4Vermicide.jpg

or

http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t16/ulkulk/15VariationonaTheme.jpg

i drew these in paint, literally

you can use one if you want

hi Hug

i actually bought some cd's today

Hello, Ansen.

That's awesome. Which ones?

i sold Queen II, Immortal's At The Heart Of Winter, Perfect Circle' eMotive, Jungle Book and Jurassic park so i could get Fire In Our Throats, secret Machines' debut and MDB's Dreadful Hours all for $3 Tongue

Wow, nice. Clap

I still need to go on my musical discovery phase here soon... I've already listened to a few of them now though, including Between the Buried and Me, Comus, and Proto-Kaw.

I'll have to hear the rest of my remaining unheard CDs around here before even thinking about acquiring any others.
