snowdog2112 Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 QUOTE (HeadlongMark @ Jun 5 2012, 04:53 PM) Awesome, John! Thank you so much! Seeing the lyrics with the synopsis really brings it home regarding the concept, harking back to 2112. Awesome, thanks! The little story bits preceding each set of lyrics is exactly like 2112, that's cool! I'll save these until tonight when I can listen to the songs and follow along.

That must mean we're missing the second Pedlar between HF and BU2B2 on the leak then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samurai1993 Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 It's just me, or the starting setting is really 2112-esque? Also, Clockwork Angels (song) is really beautiful, I can imagine every bit of the song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
