QUOTE (Akron162 @ May 20 2012, 08:38 PM) Ive heard and read everywhere how awsome and influential Spocks Beard is, but now, after finally getting my hands on The Light (wich by the way is suposed to be their best album) and listen to their music for the first time, i didnt liked it. I found it very formulaic and boring, everything i was specting to hear in it come out as exactly i thought it would, i knew what would happen in the songs minutes before it actually happened, and i hate that. I hate predictable music. Im not a fan of Neal Morse voice neither. Maybe it just need more listens, but right now, meeeeh... I have all of the Spock's Beard stuff. Musically I enjoy them but for me Neal's voice is quite wimpy for a prog rock band. He sings like he is in a broadway musical or as a lead singer in the Mickey Mouse Club.   Then after the "Snow" record (which is great) he goes Jesus Freak and leaves the band.   Check out some current Spock's Beard albums without Neal!!   They have a new double live cd out right now. It's from the "X" Tour. They are way better with Neal at the helm! Neal Morse is the man!!!

I'm just saying Spocks Beard is better than a soft adult contempo album with a slash of progressive flavor sprinkled in. I like the Flying Colors album, but it sounds like an album that was rushed. Its great for the time they had, but given more time the album would have been better.

Don't like them or Neal's solo stuff. Neither do I like Transatlantic or Flying Colors.

Fixed for me.

 

Don't like The Flower Kings either.
