    Dream Theater S/T new studio album

    There's great material on ALL of their releases but also some dreck (IMHO). I was glad to see the Portnoy influence almost completely vanish on his departure, almost as if they did this on purpose. REALLY glad to see his cookie monster vox gone. I truly enjoyed ADTOE and am hopeful for the...

    Loud Park

    Bump. Does anyone know if WOWOW archives their shows and if the CM performance can be viewed in its entirety? I've seen two separate videos now and the sound and band performance is stellar. Would love to see this released.

    DGM tracklisting for "Momentum"

    It really is....Their live DVD of material just prior to this latest release is also quite good.

    Circus Maximus: Live in Japan

    Anyone know if the entire set is available on line? These guys NEED to do a DVD!

    New Queensryche snippet, thoughts?

    I just listened to the teasers on iTunes of Frequency Unknown. IMHO: Terrible production and the mix is not very good, musicianship is lacking, Tate struggling to sing heavy music and finally, the butchering of the old tunes he decided to re-record.

    QUEENSRŸCHE: Dedicated to Chaos

    I don't know a lot about QR but did like a number of their tunes from the early days and all of Operation Mindcrime. I once saw a live concert on VH1 Classic which was very good and was never able to find out if it was ever released on a DVD but I'd certainly buy it if available. Again, from...

    DREAM THEATER - New track to stream June 29 at 11:00 AM EST

    I liked the new tune, the mix was much better than how they typically sound. I think the keys and bass are finally evident and the drums may be a bit further back in the mix than where Portnoy usually was. I hear the usual DT riffage and arrangements that give them their overall sound and in...

    PAGAN'S MIND Wakefield Show To Be Streamed!

    Just checked a GMT calculator on line and for California, it would mean that 8:00 p.m. in the UK would be 1:00 p.m. here.

    SYMPHONY X: NEW SONG AVAILABLE FOR STREAMING

    I agree with the prior observations that this song could have been released on earlier discs. Nothing really new here. As usual, great individual performances including Russell Allen but very familiar in the composition. I hope there will be more to consider when the rest of the material is...

    SOUND-CLIPS: PAGAN'S MIND

    Great new music but I can hear much of the same tendencies in their writing as the past two releases.

    Guess new Dream Theater drummer-win a prize.

    I would love to see and hear Priester in DT. He has been my first choice all along.

    Guess new Dream Theater drummer-win a prize.

    Saw that. Could that mean that they reconciled with Portnoy and expect everyone to be happy that he's returned? I would expect the band to want to continue without personnel changes if at all possible and that this would be the preferred outcome (in their view) by the fans. BUT.....given...

    Is V the quintessential Symphony X disc?

    I believe their composition skills improved on V but I really like both albums.

    Guess new Dream Theater drummer-win a prize.

    I agree. If they cannot disclose anything for legal reasons, just say so and I think the fans will be patient. Otherwise, this just looks bad and is creating too much speculation.

    Interesting Interview with Kiko Loureiro (Angra)

    Does anyone know why Aquilles Priester left the band?

    Symphony X 2011 US tour

    I'm really only interested in seeing Symphony X but expect that their set will be very short given the number of bands. Anyone care to guess how long their set might be?

    Vanden Plas vs Circus Maximus vs Redemption

    Everyone's taste varies but I like all 3 bands giving Circus Maximus the edge because of their vocal arrangements but VP has an outstanding catalog and have consistently delivered great music. CM will need to do a few more great albums but I expect they will. In spite of the love for Ray...

    Still alive and kicking...

    Hey Kenneth, Thanks for stopping by. We're still working but have not been able to find the right singer. We have a few more possibilities that we are checking out so something could happen shortly but given past experience, I am not betting on it. Stay tuned. Cheers, Paul
