JimD........Love to Love is an awesome track...by an awesome band.Their live version off of Strangers in the Night is simply stunning and i see where your coming from with the "odd time signiture" thing.I think maybe a Dream Theater track may be more up their street....say Breaking All Illusions which i feel has everything that Frost excel in as well as Dream Theater

Fecking awesome.....

Nellie...you do a wonderful job.Many thanks again for swapping my xmas pressi over for the t-shirts i asked for back in January.

MOTP is riddled with Genesis influence...along with Pink Floyd and a few dabs of Queen.Meadow and the Stream in particular has Genesis written all over it and i absolutely love it.Im not sure if this was deliberate,but you do get the feeling that It Bites  have tried to show who have INFLUENCED THEM,on the new album.

Cant stand em.... :roll:

Great album...i actually prefer the first track on that album..Duel with the Devil.Transatlantic are such a top top prog band.

Apparently Pedro,its been taken down of off their site and isnt available till the 23rd/march from other sources.From what iv heard off the DeeExpus "King of Number 33" album,it sounds bloody good.Looking forward to hearing the title track (you know im a sucker for long prog epics) and have resisted temptation to listen to it on utube.Am SOOOO excited to hear the new IB album though..have a feeling it could be a classic.

Am champing at the bit for It Bites MOTP...Heard a lot of good reports,and when it comes to great song writing and prog..these guys can deliver.Also waiting for DeeExpus "King of Number 33" to be posted through my letter box on the same day....Now...which one shall i play first......It Bites by a country mile.

Gman...also check out Octavarium which has two stunning tracks at the end,the title track in particular which is 23mins long and very proggy.Images &Words is also well worth checking out.But i will warn you,as i was told on the It Bites forum...Dream Theater are very adictive....enjoy mate.

Just recieved my download,and all i can say is OH MY GOD.This album is awesome....very technical with loads of prog.Two tracks that will blow any prog lovers socks of are Breaking All Illusions...and Outcry which has one of most amazing prog instrumental breaks you,ll ever likely to hear.Those waiting to recieve their copy are in for a real treat.DT are well and truly back on form.

Im also looking forward to ADToE's.From what i gather,theyve gone back to playing more prog rock than the heavier stuff which seems to have dominated the last two albums.Iv managed to have a sneaky preview of the whole track Breaking All Illusions and it is mind blowing..very prog..and very epic,not too disimular too Octavarium.September 13th cant come soon enough.

What with Dream Theater's ADTOE,Haken's Visions and the impending It Bites new album,autumn is going to be an expensive but very enjoyable time.Great sound bites from Haken,the new album sounds great.

Loved their debut album Aquarius...if the new one is as good,it should be brilliant.

i hope Dream Theater have made the right choice with Mike Mangini,im sure he has a lot to offer the band as their new drummer.My only worry is that DT have chosen to continue writing and producing the next album in the metal vein,forgetting their prog side(which,i might add is DT at their best)and gone for MM because of his speed/power rather than his technical ability.I did feel Mike and Marco were the best two though,and thought the three episodes were spot on...but come DT...lets have another Octavarium/Images and Words/SDOIT....you guys shine like no other when you prog it up.

Unable to make the gig tonite guys....im absolutely gutted.The roads in Kent are very bad,and the train service limited(if any at all)with little hope of a return journey tonite.Months of antisipated excitement squashed by bad weather....how do they cope in Russia on a daily basis. :roll:
Hope whoever manages to get there tonite has a great time,thats assuming Jem and co make it as well.Could someone please post a set list...it would be nice/agony to know what i missed...sob sob!!
