hehe... Thanks for checking them out!

They sing in Estonian indeed, yet all the lyrics have English translations in the booklet.

If I may be so bold as to add my band (and our new CD) to the CDBaby list thread:

Oceans of Night.

Thanks for your time, support and attendance!

The Amber Light - Goodbye to Dusk, Farewell to Dawn is a fantastic album, well worth checking out. It currently has to be backordered though, unfortunately.

Checkout this new progmetal band "Floodline" I found there cd's on www.cdbaby.com They sound like Opeth yet different, They have there own style going on. Here is a reveiew that i wrote about there new album entitled "beneath the waves", Peace.

Floodline is a very talented new progmetal band that I discovered on myspace. This is the band I’ve

been waiting to hear!!! I was first pulled in from there cover art and later found out that Ed unitsky

did the album art. Ed unitsky has done cover art for "The flower kings" "The Tangent" "Unitopia"

and many other great prog bands. Another reason I was pulled into Floodline's music is

Randy George plays keys on there new album "Beneath The waves". Randy george plays bass

with Neal Morse and Mike Portnoy for those who don’t know. Lets get back to Floodline, the

new album entitled "Beneath The Waves" is a well produced and thought out concept album that is very dynamic in the vein of Opeth. This album is in my top 10 prog metal albums for 2009. Floodline

Reminds me of Opeth yet different, They have there own thing going on. If Opeth and Alice in

Chains had a baby it would sound like Floodline. This is an amazing album from start to

finish, many twists and turns in between. I bought the cd at www.cdbaby.com but I think you

can find it elsewhere. Check these guys out at www.myspace.com/floodlinemusic you wont

regret it! Peace........

I love prog!!!!!

Hello peoples! I read through your thread, and thought I might suggest my band to you for a listen! (Not trying to be cocky, but if I didn't promote, I wouldn't be doing my job!) We are on CDbaby, myspace, facebook, all that good stuff. We are called "Sleep Siren." Please take a listen and let me know what you think!

Thanks everyone!

P.S. - We are out of hard copies on cdbaby. We lose money selling our hard copies, unfortunately. However if anyone wants one, I'd be happy to handle the transaction myself. :-)

Prog On!

Well, not surprisingly my old band is on cdbaby too. Technically we are now defunct. There is a little prog influence but it's mostly post-rock. Now I'm not suggesting anybody buy this, unless it strikes your fancy. But I guess it's worth a listen: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/antimatterfox

There is also this excellent band: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/teaclub

Whose second album I can assure easily surpasses this, although I'm not sure exactly when it will be available

I used to be a CD Baby addict. It starts by searching for bands you know so the site will pull up bands that (allegedly) sound similar. I've discovered some pretty great stuff this way.

Not long ago I decided the cons outweighed the pros when it came to owning CDs so I mainly download all my music now (as long as it's high bitrate and non-DRM). Fortunately CD Baby does that too!

I finally put my own thing out there recently. It's currently being considered for inclusion into PA but you're welcome to check it out:

I can't remember the last time they've put something new on their website. Imagine on somebody else's website... LOL

I'll join in the general throng here and humbly submit my CD. I recently got accepted into Crossover so this is probably quite timely.

my band Tempus Fugit (not the Brazillian band but the Toronto band) has a new album Shallow Water Blackout which is up on CD Baby at
http://www.cdbaby.com/Artist/TempusFugit
FYI we will be playing on April 8 2010 between 1PM and 5PM at Brutopia in Montreal in conjunction with The Marillion Convention - which will be a mix of originals and Marillion songs.
