I've heard them, but their music didn't make me feel happy (or unhappy), just indifferent.

How about an 'I know em, and I'd about put them on a par with DT' button, Mike? .
I've gone for DT on this thread...but only just. If PoS had a longer back catalogue containing RL parts 2 & 3, then it may be slightly different.

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

I know them - they're very good (but Dream Theater are better).

I had one album (Perfect Element) and thought it was OK, but not worth investigating further ... so where does that put me? I can't really say I know them since I know a tiny fraction of the group/Gildenlow's work ...

Perfect Element is difficult to start with ... if you're into metal, I'd recommend Concrete Lake, if not, you should try Remedy Lane. Both are VERY different from Perfect Element.

Remedy Lane is a more likely destination ...  ... but by God, there are a few 100 bands ahead in the list, now that I've already tried PoS ...

So, it's apparent that royalty is still without a sense of sarcasm. Y'know, being the King of Loss and all. Excuse my childish silliness, but I'll never let go of my sense of wonder.
I apologize - King of Loss - if I seemed too pretentious. Just give me your blessing and I can go on.
Peace & take care

Way better than DT.
More emotional, more tasteful, more diverse, better singer, better songs. That's why they're better in my book.
