I so, so hope its anything like Memories In My Head. The psychedelic side of Riverside.
Absolutely, Memories In My Head was one of of best Riverside's releases. Although it seems like they are going to play eighties-inspired prog rock on this album (at least that's what they say in interviews). Actually I never thought Mariusz Duda copied Steven Wilson style in any way, but now it just seems funny how SW played psychedelic, Floydian things with PT first, than went more metal, later in his solo career he recorded seventies-inspired albums and now he released "Hand. Cannot. Erase.", eighties inspired album, and that's the exact order of Riverside styles Of course I'm simplifying it, but one could see corelation between the ideas standing beside the latest SW album and "Love, Fear And The Time Machine".

I love the title. And if its truly in the vein of Memories In My Head that would be great as well. And if it isn't, well it still may be great. Looking hopefully to it, in any case.

You know...`Shrine' is not a bad album as such, but it just seems kind of...`so what' compared to the previous discs. There's not actually a bad track on it, and there's plenty of lovely mellow moments, and it is easy to put on and simply enjoy, but it seems less substantial than the albums before it.
To be honest, Duda's most recent Lunatic Soul album `Walking of a Flashlight Beam' is FAR superior in every way...Complex, atmospheric, brooding...wipes the floor with `Shrine'.
And do I hear that lyric right on the first track of `Shrine' that sounds like `No, I don't have a stomach-ache, it's just my face...'?!?!

I missed that one song and album trailer have been released some time ago.
While the trailer is nice, "Discard Your Fear" is their most commercial song up to date, and I just hope the rest of the album is completely diffrent... The verses and chorus are just patheticly simple
