Remember that Arcturus' new album, "Sideshow Symphonies" will be released next monday! It will probably be bizarre prog metal in the vein of their previous album "The Sham Mirrors".
There has been a line-up change, long time vocalist Garm (Kristoffer Rygg) has left the band and Simon Hestnęs (ICS Vortex) has replaced him. But no worries! He's a great vocalist as well.

 Yes, I love The Sham Mirrors too  ...Good to see there are other fans of this great band... Well, I am also waiting for their new album, but I don't have money for it at the moment... I am waiting to hear their new vocalist, I must say I am rather fan of Garm and I think they are quite different band now... But I've read a review of this album recently and was given 5/5 stars and reviewer wrote all their fans will love this album from the very first listening...

I've heard the album now!
I didn't quite get into it at first listen, but I must say there were a lot of instantly likeable melodies and Hellhammer particularly is very impressing  . I think that after a few listens I'm going to like it a lot more.
The music is pure prog btw! |

I am now listening new track of Arcturus - live version of "Demon
Painter" and it's amazing IMO... This band is still great without
Garm...  Well, maybe I will sell "Moonmadness" and "Script For A Jester's tear" to have money for new Arcturus... I am just a poor student as I have said many times...  I hope "Sideshow Symphonies" is a masterpiece... ------------- Pablo P. |
