You forgot the link haha:

Two songs from my upcoming debut album! or https://soundcloud.com/thegabrielconstruct/retreat-subway It's a solo project. I wrote all of it and performed all the vox and keys, but I was joined by these guys: Travis Orbin (ex-Periphery, Sky Eats Airplane, Of Legends) - drums Tom Murphy...

Man, listen to some classical music. Most progressive metal is TERRIBLY composed cut-and-paste nonsense. Composition and structure (along with emotional expression) are actually the genre's biggest weakpoints, and I'm a huge fan of it. This band especially falls into that niche. It's absurd...

Haha, does Mike actually know the kind of shit that went down in the second wave black metal scene Gorgoroth is a part of? Much worse than hip-hop.

What? That's where I put it.

Correct. I was rather surprised by TNATSW. I was really expecting Advent, Beneath the Mire, or Wreath... nonetheless, they played so well that I can't complain about a thing.

I'm not opposed to moshing, but doing it to Opeth just seems wrong (except, perhaps, to a few parts in Heir Apparent).

Setlist: Enslaved: To the Coast Fusion of Sense and Earth RUUN As Fire Swept Clean the Earth Ground The Watcher Isa Opeth: Heir Apparent Ghost of Perdition Godhead's Lament The Leper Affinity Credence Hessian Peel Closure The Night and the Silent Water The Lotus Eater...

rofl. The game was dead. The whole world felt absolutely dead. It was incredibly repetitive and contained no depth. Ultimately, there is nothing to be had out of playing Oblivion (I should know... I played too much of it before figuring this out).

it certainly feels like a concept album until the last two tracks come along

ugh, why does he waste his time with Dimmu? I understand that Arcturus is dead and Borknagar isn't so great anymore, but there are much better ways he could spend his time (full time with Code, for instance). In any case, I really hope Sideshow Symphonies gets remixed. It may be Arcturus'...

Random question regarding Sverd's wikipedia page. What is this unreleased 'Prophecies of Fire' thingy under his stint with Covenant? Wasn't that the working title of Animatronic? I didn't think he had anything to do with that album. O.o Also, did they ever re-issue Sideshow Symphonies with...

lol oepth

With regards to the new direction: YES! I would love an album of songs that mellow and chilly.

WTF, Undead and Cadaver were two of the best songs on the disc
