Vanden Plas - Chronicles of the Immortals (Netherworld)

[NorseBlood]

I'm resurrecting old threads today. This one is 5 years old. However, I'd like to add my comment to this one.

This Vanden Plas album is, in my opinion, a masterpiece. Its so rich and filled with so many musical elements and themes it blows me away every time I listen to it. I'll have to admit, when they played at ProgPower XVIII I was a little bit disappointed they didn't play anything off this album. Still, anytime you can see @VandenPlas is a good day, and I loved their performance nonetheless.

Does anyone think bringing Vanden Plas back to play this album - in its entirety - would be a good idea?
Are they working on a new album? Has anyone heard or read any recent news about them?
