Try not to misunderstand my statement. I love Romeo, he truly is a top notch guitarist. But, like someone else said "But I must say that once upon a time he showed me how to compose an amazing solo." I'm not knocking on his ability to play, I'm knocking on his ability to be inspired, and in turn...

I think it's more along the lines of, the older fans, are tired of hearing an unspired Romeo solo album. Pinella is more prominent on Underworld, but saying "he's back" is a stretch. I still feel that all the band members are so talented, and can be so creative, that its a shame they've become...

I can agree with that, I'm still holding out that they will take the golden oppurtunity for their tenth studio album to be X: The New New Mythology Suite! I dig the new album, I really do. But, part of me is still let down, and probably will, and for ever be let down! I understand the whole...

Well it's been a good while. But the time to chime in has come. I've given the album a few back to back listens by this point, as well as some broken up listens on shuffle. My standards where at an all time low, so that may effect my judgement. BUT, Underworld I do seem to enjoy more than...

My excitement for a new album, is a 10. But I voted for 3 anyways. While I can enjoy iconoclast, and paradise lost for what they are. It is not what I want from the band. So excited yes, hopeful that it will be any different than the last two? Nah... The old days of Symphony X are gone it would...

Hmm... V: The New Mythology Suite >Rediscovery Prt II >Evolution >The Communion and the Oracle The Odyssey >The Odyssey >Awakenings >Accolade II The Divine Wings of Tragedy >The Divine Wings of Tragedy >The Accolade >Candlelight Fantasia Paradise Lost >Domination...

Touring is very costly. They make alot of direct cash on album/merchandise sales. But all the other cash goes to paying the gas, the hotels, the crew. So I don't think they make as much money as you would think.

My understanding is they are waiting for the best oppurtunity to make it the most killer DVD ever... When will this happen? No freaking idea!

I agree I have yet to dislike any symphony x song. And this album changes nothing. Though I voted for "when all is lost"... I really really like "lords of chaos" "iconoclast" and "end of innocence"... To be honest with you I don't understand all the hate. Just about every song on this album is...

@Marwen: Words can't describe it... I'm also happy to see you're enjoying the album. I seem to remember you having your doubts. :) Though I'm sure we all did! Just nice to see not everyone is hard headed. EDIT: On a side note, any news of a music video for any of the new songs? Not that its...

^ I agree, for a bunch of prog snobs, we sure are terrified of change. Even if the album was horrible, id still buy it, because symphony x deserves it. I'm a supporter, and always will be. There is something for everyone in Iconoclast, if you're so pure and worried about disappointment listen to...

Its def' better than Paradise Lost. It took all the good from it, and improved on it. And removed most of, not all the bad. Lots of new symphony x moments, lots of classic symphony x moments which where hardly apparent on Paradise Lost. I personally think it sounds like The Odyssey and Paradise...

DT is pretty awful, but ayreon is pretty lack luster minus Star One which I love! As far as the negative comments go, I posted earlier on in this thread that if you have something negative to say about the new album. Start your own thread. This is the news/info thread for Iconoclast, and it was...

Can't really tell to much whats going on with the new song, but the intro sounds pretty bad ass. As far as the whole Allen growls controversy. If anyone listened to his most recent interview, he clearly states that he likes the growls, and heavier, rhaspy vocals alot. But he won't resort to...

UPDATE -Release Date -Track List (as sketch as some of them sound lol)
