^Thatīs my prefered listening method. I like to understand where an artist/act is/are coming from and where they are heading.
...oh and while Rush are certainly among the influences in your music, I actually hear a stronger relation to Voivod. But ultimately I think youīve achived what most artists are looking for and thatīs a sound of your own. Edited by UMUR - April 27 2012 at 04:28 |

First and a half impression of "the Sickness and the Theory" You've taken a bold step forward with the new album, taking on more ambitious songs and proggyness. I must say I am not too keen on the piano though (the instrument never does it for me in 'heavy rock'). I also do miss the spacey keyboards and immediacy of the debut. Well, we'll see how it turns. It's sure not an album too judge too quickly or lightly. |

I hear what youre saying. I think we are trying to incorporate everyone into the mix this time so there's more piano, more developed bass and drums etc. also the first album was mostly just written by myself (music anyway) with the exception of "mission" so that's why it's so guitar heavy. I do agree with the spacey keyboard sounds. As you probably can tell we don't really mold our sound to everyone's liking but personally I love spacey keyboards and will probably encourage more of that on our next album.

Iīve been having the debut on heavy rotation since I received the album and Iīve begun work on a review. Itīs a really great album.
...took a sneak listen to the new album, but not enough to comment on it yet.

The offer still stands for anyone who'd like to review either of our CDs. We can arrange a download or get a CD to you.
One thing I noticed is people who give lower ratings don't seem to post reviews. We'd like to know what you think of our album, whether good or bad. We listen to suggestions and always want to get better. |

Great album! The band even gave me a free download! I've been featuring them on my facebook page, The Prog Mind (https://www.facebook.com/TheProgMind) now and then, and I will even more now that I've remembered again.
