Another Canadian fan here. Graham is a true original. He sang on albums from some of my favorite guitar players ( Malmsteen,Vai, Impellitteri, Schenker) and one of my favorite Japanese bands ,Anthem. And he is sounding great these day. I hope to hear some new recordings with him soon.

Wow, great song! The warm and melodic Symphony X has returned. Sometimes I feel Symphony X get a bit carried away trying to be heavy and aggressive, when a song like "Without You" is really what they do best.

MinstreliX - Chronostrings. Album of the year , for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdKo5uRG2zg

Labrie's performance on I&W is stellar, and for me it's always a toss up. Which is his best performance, Awake or I&W? On Awake ,IMHO Labrie sang with more emotion , adding more grit and expanding more of his lower range. While at the same time sang with more power and clarity. Although I...

Queensryche - Rage For Order Lost Horizon - A Flame To The Ground Beneath Crimson Glory - Transcendence Circus Maximus - Isolate Dream Theater - Awake

I can see he invested a lot of thought in coming up with a new band name. ;)

Very sad news. I used to see Randy all the time when he played in the Toronto area. He was always such a nice guy and very humble. One of the best bass players in rock/metal. 54 is way to young. RIP Randy.

More people need to check this out. Incredible album.

He'll be back for more, because he's a wanted man.

One of my favorite bands from Japan. These guys are really taking neo-classical power metal to another level. Vocalist Leo Figaro is like the Mark Boals of Japan, singing on many bands and projects. Check out some of his other stuff with Eyes of Fenrir and Dragon Guardian.

Nils Molin puts in an amazing vocal performance. So much soul and passion. At times he sounds a bit like a young Russell Allen.

This album kicks ass from start to finish. They really have stepped up their game in everyway. For me, this is disc of the year so far.

I love The Code of silence album , it really went under the radar. Great songs, and Ben Randall is one of the best young guitarists out there.

I have been in the same boat as you being more of a prog metal-head to more melodic metal in recent years. Here are some things for you to check out if you haven't already. The Magnificent- The Magnificent Eclipse Bleed - Bleed And Scream Anthem - Burning Oath Anthem - Black Empire...

I have no idea what Tony was thinking when he recorded guitar tracks for this. It seems that he mailed his parts in without a care. Very disappointing.

I love these guys , especially The 1st Chapter and Isolate.Nine was hit or miss for me and I found the production a bit dull.So I also find it strange that they chose this song for their first video ,considering that the album has been out for a year now.There are more catchy songs on Nine.I...

They have forgotten how to write good riffs, and good songs.Now they sound like a soundtrack to a Hollywood movie,with some metal guys as the backup band.On the Puritanical album they had a good balance with cool riffs and good songs.The keys and orchestral moments added atmosphere and an epic...

Great review!I really liked how you gave a track by track rundown.I think it paint´s a nice picture for the rest of us who have not heard all of the album yet.I have heard the new single "Reach Within".I can´t tell you how many times I have played in the last few days.Very uplifting and fresh...
