Favorite Song from our synthetic soul...

OK, so what are everyone's favorite songs from our recently released "our synthetic soul..." CD?

Multiple selections are OK!

Wurm

Gotta go with WURM so far, but I've only been through the album twice in the car. Perfect song to go with the SARS headlines I've seen all month.

Great music! The other songs are also good.

Thanks for the comment and the post!

Choke went through several revisions before we got to the final version. We played with the arrangement quite a bit, and settled on putting the solo early in the song (after the first verse/chorus) and before the bridge. A bit different from most typical arrangements that would have the solo late in the song. I think it has an interesting effect.

Hey Terminus, thanks for the comments and the post!

Enlightenment is my current favorite, as well. (though that changes daily and sometimes hourly!).

Our plans are to start working on the next CD in the next couple of months, shooting for an early 2004 release. We hope to have a 3-song demo available for this year's ProgPower.

Also, we filmed a video for Enlightenment, which should be posted on the web-site in a month or two.

Maybe, if the stars every come into alignment, we'll play a couple of shows. We can always hope!

Bob

hey bob, i was thinking about your live performances, and my thoughts are i can help you out. i am an awesome button pusher. so i can hit the start button on the drum machine to start everything off. think of the possibilities. i could make millions. DJ Riendeau. i'd be awesome. i could make it look like i am doing other things too. maybe fiddle with a scratch board, even though not making any sounds. oh man, i just read what i wrote, and i am dumb. i think i will go sit in my corner now.
