    2019: So, there's a new album out...

    Sad how band forums in general, the best places for in-depth discussion of the music and for interacting with band members in non-shallow ways, are more of less dead. I still stop by, though, and thought I'd post some of the press release for The God Machine, released today. "Los Angeles-based...

    Dollars and Cents lyrics/meaning?

    For those who don't know, this song was released in demo form on the 2 disc version of A Blueprint of the World. I love the music, but I'm troubled by the lyrics. I've never abandoned a song over lyrics, and that won't change for this song, but it does affect what a song means to me. At Death's...

    Let's prove not all Enchant discussion lives on Facebook by talking about the album

    (...and so begins a monologue thread :P) Got the album yesterday, the first time Amazon has ever delivered a pre-order of mine on time. Last time I had to wait an additional 9 days. This will be brief as I'm not much for comprehensive reviews. My first major impression (besides "that's a...

    Omniscient the best SP ablum since Messiah?

    I first got into SP when Messiah came out. The band or the label or someone had posted an MP3 of Vengeance Attained. Despite already being a huge John Arch fan, I was pretty damn sure the first two lines were sung by a woman. But anyway, I bought the album, loved it, but I didn't follow the...

    Your thoughts on the Martin Henriksson takeover

    Maybe this thread has been done before and I'm late to the party, but I think it deserves some discussion. What are your thoughts on Martin Henriksson becoming de-facto band leader around Damage Done? I love Damage Done and think it's one of their best albums (though The Gallery has always...

    In Search of Truth - Live in Atlanta DVD

    Apologies for the very officious title... Glenn mentioned that Evergrey was using their own camera crew for the ProgPower kickoff show where they performed all of In Search of Truth for a possible live DVD. The guys played flawlessly, Tom sounded great, there were hardly any gaps between...

    Cynic - Carbon-Based Anatomy - accidental mini-review

    It's 11/11/11 and the album is officially out now... Thoughts? I'm taking this one as sort of an aside stylistically like Re-Traced. Unlike Re-Traced which I never quite got into, perhaps partially because I like the original material so much as it stands on Traced in Air, I'm really...

    Will Carina be making the trip to Atlanta this year?

    ProgPower in September will be my first time seeing Evergrey live and it can't come soon enough. Just wondering if Carina will be there!

    Opening night Evergrey/VP show -- All seated or GA floor?

    I'll be flying in for the shows on the 14th and 15th and was wondering if the EG/VP show on the 15th will be all-seated or have a general admission floor? This will be my first ProgPower event so I'm clueless :P Thanks!
