  1. That new Haken album The Mountain is a pretty ballsy albums, I'd say for me it's definitely up there for albums this year along with The Raven (which changed my mind about ol' Steven Wilson)
  2. Listened to Reflektor. Still trying to figure out what on earth I just heard. I liked it. But I still don't know what I liked.
  3. The latest album is like Syd Barrett meets modern production, pretty insane. Also, their piece "Siberian Breaks" is their proggiest song, lasting about 12 minutes, also a great piece
  4. Hi there everyone, the band I am in recently released a new single called "Hello?" from our latest album. It has evident Rush and Camel influences in its synth and guitar solos. Hope you enjoy it, or at least give us a listen :) http://youtu.be/UbJxXg0OxLw
  5. Can't wait for this, been looking forward to it for a long time :drool:
  6. Neil Peart couldn't drum his way out of a paper bag
  7. I saw them at Prog Day last year in North Carolina. Quite a group! Remind me of a modern Mahavishnu, mixed with a Govan-esque guitarist.
  8. I am a Christian myself, but I am in sharp opposition of essentially every "Christian band" of today. Just can't stand the musicianship, the lack of lyrical depth (how can an atheist like Peart make a song more religious sounding that a modern Christian's repetition of 'I love you, you love me'?), and just the fact that the quality isn't there. However, I do enjoy the music of House of Heroes as far as Christian bands.
  9. I am not one who is a fan of the super metal and heavy tracks, so my list might be a bit different from the rest of yours 10. Windowpane 9. Folklore 8. Hours of Wealth 7. Hex Omega 6. The Devil's Orchard 5. Burden 4. Ending Credits 3. Isolation Years 2. Marrow of the Earth 1. Nepenthe
  10. Are they making a single edit for "The Anarchist"?
  11. Some buddies of mine are in a sorta blues-rock and classic rock style band and are in the Ernie Ball competition to play at Eric Clapton's Crossroads Festival in N.Y. this year. You can show your support by liking their FaceBook page (http://www.facebook.com/ScottFarleyBand) and voting support on the official Play Crossroads Competition website (http://www.playcrossroads.com/u/ScottFarleyBand). Big thanks to anyone who wants to get involved by showing support!
  12. Reminds me of the harmonizing technique Allan Holdsworth used on "Metal Fatigue."
  13. Yes at Charlotte when the first bass line comes in, its a clear recording and Geddy lifted his arms to make it seem like he was playing magically without use of hands. After the first time around, he joined in with two bass lines playing simultaneously.
  14. QUOTE (Tommy Sawyer @ Aug 27 2012, 04:10 PM) Camel - Lies Love that song. A great mood changer for the Nude album.
