Believe me we've worked on the music day and night. Thats why we need a good name that would not embarrass the music. What your saying is pretty offensive considering the fact you never heard us.
 
I bet my life if you are a true prog fan that can aprrecaite good music you would like our work...

Ouch
 
It seems to me that no matter the thread there are always people who try to put a negative spin on it - I may even be guilty of this myself on occasion (sorry).
 
Personally a song name can pique my interest and lead me to listen to the music, much the way an album name or artwork can. I have purchased albums strictly on the name or the artwork in the past, perhaps a bit implusive but there you are...
 
Besides, the thread is fun!

Lamb,
 
I guess I am assuming that there is a metal component to the music from your description of the first part of the song - although I get somewhat confused with your description of the second part (more symphonic?).
 
Anyhoo, here's another...
 
Sacrifical Lamb being led to slaughter
Part I  - Spit on my head 'cause my ears are burning!
Part II - The end, the middle, the beginning

Hmm the first piece (10 min) is more metal oriented but not as much as it is complex in terms of harmony and time signature, thats what gives it the dark and spooky feel.
 
the second might also be thought of as metal oriented but definitely NOT as heavy as DT (which aren't that heavy), and yes it is much more symphonic. also the beginning is jazz-blues... ish....
 
 
Thanks for your interest in this thread lol, I didnt think anyone would give a damn...
